Drag and Drop Alternative, Scheduling???

[imtheodore]

I need some help with a scheduling form I am working on.

I have a list box with a list of values that has to be reduced by each value as it is added to numerous text boxes where the item is be dragged to.

So basically, there is a list box on the right with 40 doctors.
There are 20 blank text boxes on the left which will store the doctor dragged into it. Each time a doctor is dragged into the text box on the left, the list box must reflect that the doctor is no longer available to be dragged.

There my be a better way to do this and I am open to suggestions.
I cannot use combo boxes since the number of possible choices is too large.

What do people use for scheduling so that the available employees is decreased every time someone is scheduled?

Thanks,
Dave

Where are all the brilliant minds? Surely this has been done before.

If you want to do drag and drop, it isn't the easiest thing to code. It basically occurs in the mouseup and mousedown events. I don't think you will find a solution wrapped up for you and ready to go. You just have to picture what you want to do and start coding. If you get stuck search the forums or post a question.
