Select a column or row header range and then press and slide to move the range. Release to complete the action. ![Touch Support when Moving Columns or Rows](https://cdn.mescius.io/document-site-files/images/2238e618-a1fb-45a6-9ce5-9a4157bd2931/images/touchmove.png) The [AllowColumnMove](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowColumnMove.html) property must be true to move columns. [AllowColumnMove](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowColumnMove.html) and [AllowColumnMoveMultiple](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowColumnMoveMultiple.html) must be true to move multiple columns. The [AllowRowMove](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowRowMove.html) property must be true to move rows. [AllowRowMove](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowRowMove.html) and [AllowRowMoveMultiple](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowRowMoveMultiple.html) must be true to move multiple rows. The [AllowRowMoveDataAllowAddNew](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowRowMoveDataAllowAddNew.html) property must be true to move a row below the add new row or asterisk row. Refer to [Using Touch Support with Selections](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsselection) for more information on how to select a column or row. **Using Code** This example sets the [AllowColumnMove](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowColumnMove.html), [AllowColumnMoveMultiple](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowColumnMoveMultiple.html), [AllowRowMove](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowRowMove.html), and [AllowRowMoveMultiple](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowRowMoveMultiple.html) properties. ```csharp fpSpread1.AllowColumnMove = true; fpSpread1.AllowColumnMoveMultiple = true; fpSpread1.AllowRowMove = true; fpSpread1.AllowRowMoveMultiple = true; ``` ```vbnet fpSpread1.AllowColumnMove = True fpSpread1.AllowColumnMoveMultiple = True fpSpread1.AllowRowMove = True fpSpread1.AllowRowMoveMultiple = True ``` **Using Code** This example sets the [AllowRowMoveDataAllowAddNew](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread.AllowRowMoveDataAllowAddNew.html) property after binding the control. The [DataAllowAddNew](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView.DataAllowAddNew.html) property must be true to allow the asterisk row. ```csharp DataSet ds = new DataSet(); DataTable emp = new DataTable("Employees"); DataTable div = new DataTable("Division"); emp.Columns.Add("LastName"); emp.Columns.Add("FirstName"); emp.Rows.Add(new Object[] { "Jones", "Marianne" }); emp.Rows.Add(new Object[] { "Fieldes", "Anna" }); div.Columns.Add("Section"); div.Columns.Add("Specialty"); div.Rows.Add(new Object[] { "Finance", "Taxes" }); div.Rows.Add(new Object[] { "Mergers", "Legal" }); ds.Tables.AddRange(new DataTable[] { emp, div }); fpSpread1.DataSource = ds; fpSpread1.DataMember = "Division"; fpSpread1.AllowRowMove = true; fpSpread1.AllowRowMoveMultiple = true; fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.DataAllowAddNew = true; fpSpread1.AllowRowMoveDataAllowAddNew = true; ``` ```vbnet Dim ds As New DataSet() Dim emp As New DataTable("Employees") Dim div As New DataTable("Division") emp.Columns.Add("LastName") emp.Columns.Add("FirstName") emp.Rows.Add(New Object() {"Jones", "Marianne"}) emp.Rows.Add(New Object() {"Fieldes", "Anna"}) div.Columns.Add("Section") div.Columns.Add("Specialty") div.Rows.Add(New Object() {"Finance", "Taxes"}) div.Rows.Add(New Object() {"Mergers", "Legal"}) ds.Tables.AddRange(New DataTable() {emp, div}) fpSpread1.DataSource = ds fpSpread1.DataMember = "Division" fpSpread1.AllowRowMove = True fpSpread1.AllowRowMoveMultiple = True fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.DataAllowAddNew = True fpSpread1.AllowRowMoveDataAllowAddNew = True ``` ## See Also [Using Touch Support with AutoFit](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsautofit) [Using Touch Support with Cell Notes](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tscellnote) [Using Touch Support with Charts](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tschart) [Using Touch Support with Clipboard Operations](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsclipboard) [Using Touch Support with Drag and Fill](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsdragfill) [Using Touch Support with Drop-Down Elements](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tselements) [Using Touch Support with Editable Cells](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tseditcells) [Using Touch Support with InputMan Cells](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsinputman) [Using Touch Support with Filtering](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsfilter) [Using Touch Support with Grouping](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsrangegroup/tsgrouping) [Using Touch Support with Range Grouping](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsrangegroup) [Using Touch Support when Resizing Columns or Rows](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsresize) [Using Touch Support with Scrolling](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsscroll) [Using Touch Support with Selections](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsselection) [Using Touch Support with Shapes](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsshapes) [Using Touch Support when Sorting](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tssort) [Using Touch Support with Viewports](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tsviewport) [Using Touch Support with the Tab Strip](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tstabstrip) [Using Touch Support with Zooming](/spreadnet/docs/latest/online-win/overview/spwin-devguide/tsmain/tsusing/tszoom)
