Move an Item Up and Down an Itembox List
Question:
I'd like to be able to let a user move a highlighted file up or down a list with either UP/DOWN buttons or a key combination such as ctrl/up arrow, ctrl/down arrow. The concept does'nt seem too difficult, I've seen it in many applications. But when I try to accomplish it with ItemLocate/ItemRemove/ItemInsert etc..., I can only remove the item from the list or move it to the beginning or end of the list. Am I missing something? Can WinBatch do this?Answer:
