What I mean is that I do not care what happens to my code to drag the frame. If we find a better solution, I'm the first to throw it overboard. I'll try your tonight. After I have published my current approach with a new version. Lots of new features. :)

I added a funtion that returns all adden controls, it is fast too and recurses into the tab pages. :) Multi selection by frame is now possible.

What I meant with "it is still possible", is that as soon as you click the gui, previous selection is emptied, both single and multiple selection. Since this is the expected behaviour. But if you hold down the LButton for a period of time (200-250 ms) the frame starts to follow your mouse so you can start a new selection with it.
What I do not like about my current code, is that I use a loop to capture Mouse Movement and redraw the frame. I expect that your approach will be much smoother. But untill we have found a way with your approach I'll leave my code in so people can use it.

2Maj:
I just tested your approach and is much simpler then I thought. I'll have some problems when selecting again, then the old frame is visible first. but I gotta try some stuff I'm sure I#ll can improve it.

Ah, good
Rare are those who can accept some other code after lot of time implementing it.

In that case, I will see to provide you example without looping or timer.

Ah, you know me, I am all in simplicity
Really ! If its not simple, its not good. I beleive everything can be made simple, even the quantum physics.
