Vista - Order of Sidebar gadgets

Can someone please tell me how to change the position of gadgets in the
Sidebar (and have Vista remember them :-)

I simply drag the gadgets to where I want them on the sidebar. Vista always
remembers where I have put them.

When you hover over the gadget with the mouse pointer, a grip appears on the
right side, under the closing X button and the spanner Options button.

This is ridiculous. I had tried that and could not make it work. Now I have
tried again and all is well. Thank you, Joh. Goodness knows what I did
before. :-)
