The ListView control does not support drag-and-drop functionality for items at run time (822483)

WORKAROUND

1. Add the following code to the ListView1_ItemDrag event handler.
   
   Microsoft Visual Basic .NET or Microsoft Visual Basic 2005 code

    'Begins a drag-and-drop operation in the ListView control.
   ListView1.DoDragDrop(ListView1.SelectedItems, DragDropEffects.Move)

   Microsoft Visual C# .NET or Microsoft Visual C# 2005 code

   //Begins a drag-and-drop operation in the ListView control.
   listView1.DoDragDrop(listView1.SelectedItems, DragDropEffects.Move);

2. Add the following code to the ListView1_DragEnter event handler.
   
   Visual Basic .NET or Visual Basic 2005 code

   Dim i As Integer
   For i = 0 To e.Data.GetFormats().Length - 1
   If e.Data.GetFormats()(i).Equals("System.Windows.Forms.ListView+SelectedListViewItemCollection") Then
       'The data from the drag source is moved to the target.
       e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Move
   End If
   Next

   Visual C# .NET or Visual C# 2005 code

   int len=e.Data.GetFormats().Length-1 ;
   int i;
   for (i = 0 ; i<=len ;i++)
   {
       if (e.Data.GetFormats()[i].Equals("System.Windows.Forms.ListView+SelectedListViewItemCollection"))
       {
           //The data from the drag source is moved to the target.	
           e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Move;
       }
   }
   

3. Add the following code to the ListView1_DragDrop event handler.
   
   Visual Basic .NET or Visual Basic 2005 code

   'Return if the items are not selected in the ListView control.
   If ListView1.SelectedItems.Count = 0 Then Return
   'Returns the location of the mouse pointer in the ListView control.
   Dim p As Point = ListView1.PointToClient(New Point(e.X, e.Y))
   'Obtain the item that is located at the specified location of the mouse pointer.
   Dim dragToItem As ListViewItem = ListView1.GetItemAt(p.X, p.Y)
   If dragToItem Is Nothing Then Return
   'Obtain the index of the item at the mouse pointer.
   Dim dragIndex As Integer = dragToItem.Index
   Dim i As Integer
   Dim sel(ListView1.SelectedItems.Count) As ListViewItem
   For i = 0 To ListView1.SelectedItems.Count - 1
       sel(i) = ListView1.SelectedItems.Item(i)
   Next
   For i = 0 To ListView1.SelectedItems.Count - 1
       'Obtain the ListViewItem to be dragged to the target location.
       Dim dragItem As ListViewItem = sel(i)
       Dim itemIndex As Integer = dragIndex
       If itemIndex = dragItem.Index Then Return
       If dragItem.Index < itemIndex Then
          itemIndex = itemIndex + 1
       Else
          itemIndex = dragIndex + i
       End If
       'Insert the item in the specified location.
       Dim insertitem As ListViewItem = dragItem.Clone
       ListView1.Items.Insert(itemIndex, insertitem)
       'Removes the item from the initial location while 
       'the item is moved to the new location.
       ListView1.Items.Remove(dragItem)
   Next
   

   Visual C# .NET or Visual C# 2005 code

   //Return if the items are not selected in the ListView control.
   if(listView1.SelectedItems.Count==0)
   {
      return;
   }
   //Returns the location of the mouse pointer in the ListView control.
   Point cp = listView1.PointToClient(new Point(e.X, e.Y));
   //Obtain the item that is located at the specified location of the mouse pointer.
   ListViewItem dragToItem = listView1.GetItemAt(cp.X, cp.Y);
   if(dragToItem==null)
   {
       return;
   } 
   //Obtain the index of the item at the mouse pointer.
   int dragIndex = dragToItem.Index;
   ListViewItem[] sel=new ListViewItem [listView1.SelectedItems.Count];
   for(int i=0; i<=listView1.SelectedItems.Count-1;i++)
   {
        sel[i]=listView1.SelectedItems[i];
   }
   for(int i=0; i<sel.GetLength(0);i++)
   { 
       //Obtain the ListViewItem to be dragged to the target location.
       ListViewItem dragItem = sel[i];
       int itemIndex = dragIndex;
       if(itemIndex==dragItem.Index)
      {
           return;
      }
      if(dragItem.Index<itemIndex)
          itemIndex++;
     else
          itemIndex=dragIndex+i;
      //Insert the item at the mouse pointer.
      ListViewItem insertItem = (ListViewItem)dragItem.Clone();
      listView1.Items.Insert(itemIndex, insertItem);
      //Removes the item from the initial location while 
      //the item is moved to the new location.
      listView1.Items.Remove(dragItem);
   }
