Hi Frank,
Klaus Major has written something for that
here is the script you could try and adapt to your project
It's not the original script, because I already have adapt it to my 
needs.
local maydrag, maxleft,maxright
on mousedown
   put true into maydrag
   ## In this example i set the maximum to (the width of the fields / 2)
   ## Change it to your needs, you can also use variables or 
customproperties...
   put item 1 of the loc of fld "aaa" into maxleft
   put item 1 of the loc of fld "bbb" into maxright
end mousedown
on mouseup
   put false into maydrag
end mouseup
on mouserelease
   mouseup
end mouserelease
on mousemove x,y
   if not maydrag then exit mousemove
   if x < maxleft OR x > maxright then exit mousemove
   ## Here the restriction of the movement in the x axis!
   put the rect of fld "aaa into r1
   put the rect of fld "bbb" into r2
   put the rect of fld "ccc" into r3
   ## In my example the distance between the 2 fields is ca. 20 pixel
   ## and the button is in the middle of them...
   ## That's why i use (x-10) and (x+10)!
   put (x-4) into item 3 of r1
   put (x+4) into item 1 of r2
   put (x+4) into item 1 of r3
   lock screen
   set the rect of fld "aaa" to r1
   set the rect of fld "bbb" to r2
   set the rect of fld "ccc" to r3
   set the loc of me to x, item 2 of the loc of me
   unlock screen
end mousemove
on mouseEnter
   set the cursor to 1977
   lock cursor
end mouseEnter
on mouseLeave
   unlock cursor
end mouseLeave
Hope this helps. Otherwise ask Klaus directly...
Greetings.
