I'm attempting to create a window that has 2 TreeControls and I want to
allow the user to drag an item from 1 tree onto another.  I can easily
find when certain critical mouse events occur (via "_mouseDragged",
"_mouseClicked", and "_mouseReleased" events.  My problem is in turning
off the native functionality of the TreeControl whenever a "mouse drag"
is in process.

As an example- I have a tree that has 15 items on it.  When I select
item number 3 and attempt to drag it downward [for example], the
TreeControl automatically selects the items beneath the cursor and
UNselects the original item.  Does anyone know of a way for me to turn
this off whenever dragging is occurring?

Thanks in advance,

-Tom
