Default "drag and drop" on a form

I am trying to "drag and drop" data from one control on a form to another
control. I have a form with a simple map in the background and invisible
buttons over it. I need a simple way to move inventory from one section of
the map to another. I can write the VB code to handle the mechanics behind
the action, but haven't been able to find a simple way (like an image map on
a web page) for the user to graphically "move" the items. Any inspirations?!?

See whether what I wrote in my January and February 2004 "Access Answer"
columns in Pinnacle Publication's "Smart Access" has what you're looking
for.

You can download the columns (and sample databases) for free at
