TITLE   :Cannot Drag Multiple Files in File Manager Search Window
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:buglist3.10

----------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
 
 - Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
 - Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 
SYMPTOMS
========
 
After you search for particular files in the Windows NT File Manager,
you may not be able to select numerous files from the Search window
and drag them to another directory or to another drive.
 
STATUS
======
 
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.1
and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1. We are researching this
problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge
Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Steps to Reproduce Problem
--------------------------
 
1. In the File Manager window, select the SYSTEM32 subdirectory.
 
2. From the File menu, choose Search, and then use *.EXE for the type
   of files to search for.
 
3. Select the top file and hold down the SHIFT key and highlight ten
   files down.
 
4. Release the SHIFT key.
 
5. Point to the area of selected files (but not the last file) and
   press and hold the mouse button (as if to drag them).
 
At this point, the previously selected files may be deselected and
only the file closest to the point where you were attempting to drag
from will be selected.
 
In earlier versions of Windows, the files stay selected and it is
possible to drag them to a new destination.
