Then you can put the desired code in just your form or page or container, and not have to worry about moving objects around in the ZOrder.

Larry,
Why don't you try what I said once. I tried and it works nicely. No single line of code in other objects. Since what you'd do here is the same with a longer route (first objects get dragdrop and call parent's - vs directly a virtual parent gets dragdrop).
