Staying out of the Apology argument....To answer how I handle the copy from one dwg to the other on different monitors - I use the 'copybase' to Windows Clipboard then paste into the other dwg(s).Wouldn't this work or am I misunderstanding what you want to do?craigr
How about in a button, instead of d&d?
In VBA, you could check for # of instances of Acad, then set focus to second instance, close dwg, and open in first instance. The button would work in either one. Pseudo thinking out loud...
Why don't you open one session of acad, stretch it across both monitors then use xref's.
...I just sort of pound it out as I go....

Or has that been mentioned already?
I'm already scratching my head on this one for VBA. Way too much trial error for my novice fingers. Developer Help has some good examples of "BeginDrop" events. Kinda similar to what you're trying to do. Sorry, I'm gonna have to shelf this for now Mr. Nota.
Well, I draw on the monitor directly in front of me & use the one on my right for reference. So if I have a drawing open on the screen I draw on & would like to move it to the reference monitor. It would be nice to be able to drag & drop it without closing it & opening it back up.... Guess I'm just lazy & set in my ways....
Randy, he wants to drag the container, not the contents.
