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.

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?
