>Drag start creates or brings front or sets visible = .t. for shape and shape gets dragdrop event. In dragdrop it removes itself or sends to back or sets visibility = .f. and gets a refrence to target object where dropped using sys(1270,nXcoord,nYcoord). Honestly didn't try but seems to be a working solution.

Not 100% sure I understand. I have TWO forms - I am dragging from form 1 to form 2. Drag start occurs on form 1 - form 1 doesn't know anything about form 2, so the drag start can't bring the shape to the top.
