event AllowAutoDrag (Item as HITEM, NewParent as HITEM, InsertA as HITEM, InsertB as HITEM, Cancel as Boolean)
Occurs when the user drags the item between InsertA and InsertB as child of NewParent.

TypeDescription
Item as HITEM A long expression that specifies the handle of the item being dragged.
NewParent as HITEM A long expression that specifies the handle of the newly parent, to insert the dragging Item. If 0, it indicates root items. The ItemParent property indicates the currently parent of the item.
InsertA as HITEM A long expression that specifies the handle of the item to insert the dragging Item after. If 0, it indicates that no item after.
InsertB as HITEM A long expression that specifies the handle of the item to insert the dragging Item before. If 0, it indicates that no item before.
Cancel as Boolean A Boolean expression that specifies whether the operation can continue ( this parameter is by reference )
The AllowAutoDrag event occurs when the user drags the item between InsertA and InsertB as child of NewParent, using the AutoDrag property. The AutoDrag feature indicates what the control does when the user clicks an item and starts dragging it. For instance, using the AutoDrag feature you can let the user arrange the items in the control, or can drop the selection to a any OLE compliant applications like Microsoft Word, Excel and so on... The AllowAutoDrag event may fire when the AutoDrag property is any of the following values:

You can use the AllowAutoDrag event to cancel or continue drag and drop operation using the AutoDrag property.

The following screen shot shows the NewParent, InsertA and InsertB parameters, when "Task 2" is dragging to a new position:

The AllowDragDrop event triggers contiguously while the user drags / hovers the focus/selection of items over the control. The GetAsyncKeyState API method can be used to detect whether the mouse button has been released, and so the drop action occurs. 

The following VB sample displays "Drag" while user dragging the items, and displays "Drop", when drop operation starts.

Private Sub G2antt1_AllowAutoDrag(ByVal Item As EXG2ANTTLibCtl.HITEM, ByVal NewParent As EXG2ANTTLibCtl.HITEM, ByVal InsertA As EXG2ANTTLibCtl.HITEM, ByVal InsertB As EXG2ANTTLibCtl.HITEM, Cancel As Boolean)
    With G2antt1
        Debug.Print "Drag"
        If (GetAsyncKeyState(VK_LBUTTON) = 0) Then
            Debug.Print "Drop"
        End If
    End With
End Sub

where declarations for GetAsyncKeyState API used is:

Private Const VK_LBUTTON = &H1
Private Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "user32" (ByVal vKey As Long) As Integer

Once you run the code, you will notice that the AllowAutoDrag event "Drop" may be fired multiple times, so we suggest to postpone any of your actions ( like displaying a message box ), by posting a window message or use a timer event, to let the control handles / completes the event as in the following sample:

Private Sub G2antt1_AllowAutoDrag(ByVal Item As EXG2ANTTLibCtl.HITEM, ByVal NewParent As EXG2ANTTLibCtl.HITEM, ByVal InsertA As EXG2ANTTLibCtl.HITEM, ByVal InsertB As EXG2ANTTLibCtl.HITEM, Cancel As Boolean)
    With G2antt1
        Debug.Print "Drag"
        If (GetAsyncKeyState(VK_LBUTTON) = 0) Then
            mctlTimerDrop.Enabled = True
        End If
    End With
End Sub

where mctlTimerDrop is defined as follows:

Dim WithEvents mctlTimerDrop As VB.Timer

Private Sub mctlTimerDrop_Timer()
    mctlTimerDrop.Enabled = False
    MsgBox "Drop."
End Sub


Private Sub Form_Load()
    Set mctlTimerDrop = Me.Controls.Add("VB.Timer", "DropTimer1")
    With mctlTimerDrop
        .Enabled = False
        .Interval = 100
    End With
End Sub
