Nick,
I have a form showing a number of stations(containers). Each station (container) has some number of work orders (small containers) within it each showing information about a work order. I want the user to be able to drag a work order (small container) from one station (container) to another as the work proceeds through the shop.
Put simply, I need to drag a small container from within one large container and drop it into another large container. I will also need only allow them to drop it into certain containers but I figure if I get drag & drop that the restrictions will be easy.
