Try this: private bool inDrag = false; private int xLoc; private int yLoc; private void State_MouseDown( object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { indrag = true; xLoc = e.X; yLoc = e.Y; } private void State_MouseMove( object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { if (inDrag ) { this.Top += e.Y - yLoc; this.Left += e.X - xLoc; } } private void State_MouseUp( object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { inDrag = false; }

I believe all you need to do is set the Location property of the control myControl.Location = new Point(x, y); Just make sure you do it after the OnLoad event has occurred in the form
