"grabbing a tool"

[Rob Cozens]

>Am I moving down the correct path?

Hi Barry,

Check out the mouseMove message and grab command in Rev Dictionary. 
You shouldn't have to send anything; just script a mouseMove handler 
in your image.  Grab may even be a better choice...I have not used it.

"And I, which was two fooles, do so grow three;
Who are a little wise, the best fooles bee."
