Hi Gunter - here''s some sample code for drag-dropping one listviewitem onto another in the same listview

cheers james

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)        {
            listView1.Columns.Add(new ColumnHeader("drag drop sample"));
            listView1.DragDrop += new DragEventHandler(listView1_DragDrop);
            Gizmox.WebGUI.Forms.Component[] dragtargets = new Gizmox.WebGUI.Forms.Component[1];
            dragtargets[0] = listView1 as Gizmox.WebGUI.Forms.Component;
            listView1.FullRowSelect = true;
            listView1.AllowDrop = true;
            for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
            {
                ListViewItem itmX = new ListViewItem(i.ToString());
                itmX.DragTargets = dragtargets;
                listView1.Items.Add(itmX);
            }
        }

        void listView1_DragDrop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
        {
            DragDropEventArgs dde = e as DragDropEventArgs;
            ListViewItem itmDrop = dde.TargetMember as ListViewItem;
            ListViewItem itmDrag = dde.SourceMember as ListViewItem;
            MessageBox.Show("you dropped item " + itmDrag.Text + " onto item " + itmDrop.Text);
        }
