PageControl1.BeginDrag(False) ;
end;
procedure TMainForm.PageControl1DragDrop(Sender, Source: TObject; X,
Y: Integer) ;
const
TCM_GETITEMRECT = $130A;
var
TabRect: TRect;
j: Integer;
begin
if (Sender is TPageControl) then
for j := 0 to PageControl1.PageCount - 1 do
begin
PageControl1.Perform(TCM_GETITEMRECT, j, LParam(@TabRect)) ;
if PtInRect(TabRect, Point(X, Y)) then
begin
if PageControl1.ActivePage.PageIndex <> j then
PageControl1.ActivePage.PageIndex := j;
Exit;
end;
end;
end;
procedure TMainForm.PageControl1DragOver(Sender, Source: TObject; X,
