    You have to test whether the window gets dragged near to a docking place and if it is, attach it there.

    There is no built-in windows functionality for doing that with any window.

    The exceptions are toolbar controls
    ms-help://MS.VSCC/MS.MSDNVS/shellcc/platform/CommCtls/ToolBar/ToolBar.htm
    and rebar controls. I don't know if they nativly support being dragged away however.
