Michelle,

Set the DragMode to whatever you need it to be, setting the DragIcon is all you need to do to make it not look like you are dragging the whole control.

>I'm getting ready to give up on this. It's just a visual thing and doesn't affect the functionality. I'm just worried about the users getting confused when it looks like they're dragging the whole control.
