Hm google will bring some results on VFP splitter.

It's tricky. I can give you a brief explanation what I do

I do a (transparent) shape as splitter.
then you need tho have a hidden shape that covers the whole form
then the thing is done via OLE drgadrop,
OLEStartDrag will bring the cover topmost (zorder) while OLEDrag will put the cover in background
The cover OLEDragOver will return coordinates while the splitter OEGiveFeedback does the refresh.

Thats basically is what I do.

This is ancient code ....
