Posted on: 11/6/2009 7:28:53 AM

Hi,

Lets supose i have C# application witch gets object position in desktop (for example "icon" or "shotcut") coordinates (x,y).
I need method whitch uses coordinates from application (x,y, and x_put, y_put) take object from one position and DRAG and DROP that objet to other position. Also it would be great if that methot can WORK FAST.

I appretiate your help,

Programs do not drag and drop. Do you mean move?

Are you still looking for an answer?

This would be much easier to do in C++; can you use a C++ solution that can be used by a C# applicaiton?

Actually this would be quite difficult to do since to get/set the text and other data you need to get/set memory in the program manager process. I don't know if that can be done using Vista and Windows 7 since they have tighter security but even if it can be done it is not easy.
