I suggested this in June. To my knowledge, there is no way to drag and drop or copy and paste.

Take a look at the attached VI, it allow you to drag from the left listbox to the right listbox and it is set to copy the data (you can set it to move by right clicking on the listbox and selecting Drag and Drop > Drag Mode > Move). You basically need to use three events to handle a drag and drop...the Drag Starting? event on the source listbox, the Drag Enter? event on the target listbox and the Drop? event on the target listbox. Hope this helps!

right click on the multiclumn listbox->Drag and Drop and select "allow dragging" and "allow dropping" option. Now you should be able to rearrange the data.

To drag and drop within the target listbox you'll have to add a Drag Starting? event for the target listbox and register that drag data with a different adn unique Drag Data Name, then in the Drag Enter? event check for that data name as well before accepting the event, and then in the Drop? event for the target listbox handle the new data name as well. You can use the Point to Row Column invoke method to determine which row, column, or cell is being manipulated. I've created a VERY crude example of this, but you'll have to get more creative with how you handle the moving of rows, columns, etc. for the target listbox, but I think it gives the general idea. Hope this helps!

i hope you got solution for drag and drop from one control to another and its working fine.

 

Now i understand that you would like to rearrange the "target control" then select the "move only " options in the "drag mode" (right click on the control and select the "drag and drop" option.

 

If you want to duplicate the value in the control use the option 'copy only'
