And knowing your original problem, assuming you're using shapes coming from a common class, you might make it another way. Instead of checking, shapes could say soemthing like 'hey you're stepping over me'. Something like in pseudocode:

MouseEnter-Feedback you entered at my region
MouseLeave-OK you left my domain

PS: This has problems (mouse might be at center of another shape moving and it edge touches another shape before you know).
OleDragDrop effects might help?
