[RESOLVED] Move Fixed Border Form

Hi, I have a form which has a borderstyle of fixed single. I have removed the controlbox and set caption to nothing so that I don't have a title bar on my form.

How can I move around my form by clicking anywhere on the form and dragging it? Is this possible? Form.Move?

Thanks!

VB Code:

Private Declare Function ReleaseCapture Lib "user32.dll" () As Long
 
Private Declare Function SendMessage Lib "user32.dll" Alias "SendMessageA" ( _
    ByVal hWnd As Long, _
    ByVal wMsg As Long, _
    ByVal wParam As Long, 
    ByRef lParam As Any _
) As Long
 
Private Sub Form_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    Const WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN As Long = &HA1
    Const HTCAPTION As Long = 2
    If (Button And vbLeftButton) = vbLeftButton Then
        ReleaseCapture
        Call SendMessage(Me.hWnd, WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN, HTCAPTION, ByVal 0&)
    End If
End Sub

try this:

VB Code:

Private Declare Function SendMessage Lib "User32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, lParam As Any) As Long
Private Declare Sub ReleaseCapture Lib "User32" ()
Const WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN = &HA1
Const HTCAPTION = 2
Private Sub Form_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)

    Dim lngReturnValue As Long
    If Button = 1 Then
        'Release capture
        Call ReleaseCapture
        'Send a 'left mouse button down on caption'-message to our form
        lngReturnValue = SendMessage(Me.hWnd, WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN, HTCAPTION, 0&)
    End If
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Paint()
    Me.Print "Click on the form, hold the mouse button and drag it"
End Sub

Thanks guys, much appreciated. :thumb:
