Gambas ONE

Thanks Cogier, Ill have a look at this, trouble is there is too much japanese knot weed!

And thanks for the thought Bruce, that's roughly what I was doing, I just had this foolish notion of making it more 'fancy' with a drag&drop effect!

The full project is a horticultural/gardening database. The drawingarea represents a bed and the gridview a list of plant/shrub names. In fact there's more than one gridview with names.
