The simplest way is to grab the clip and drag it to the new position. If you have snap enabled and place your cursor at the end of the first clip, your second clip will snap in place as you near the cursor.

Basic riplle delete: Make a selection in the middle of the event, and hit delete. If the ripple edit button is on (it is by default) the portion of the event after the deleted selection will be sucked back to the start of the selection.

Cool new feature in Vegas 3: Right-click an event and click "Select events to end". This selects the current event, plus all events on the same track after the selected events, PLUS any event grouped with the first selected event, and anything after those group siblings. This allows you to do a "drag-ripple" without the time consuming process of manual multi-selecting events.

Looks like in VV3 ya gotta select a *region* and hit delete for ripple delete to work. If you (S)eparate a section and hit DELete then nothing ripples.

Man, that is nice. About a week ago I was doing a still picture montage, and when deleting an image in the middle, had to manually select all the remaining events and drag them over. If I had figure this "Select to end" thing out first, it would have saved me a bunch of time...

That's been my experience too. I've tried some experiments with soloing
a track to see if i could ripple-edit just one track. I've had mixed results.
Probably my own fault for not really understanding what i want to accomplish
yet.
