Re: ? Drag-n-Drop From Browser

Well, it works. I've successfully implemented an COleDropTarget. It took a
lot
of reading and learning, but it works. It accepts only links and text and
displays the URL (and appropriate cursor). It does however also accept
files
because the dialog has the accept-files style for a different control, so
I'm
going to replace that with a second drop target so that only that other
control
takes files.

I was under the impression that like clipboard functionality,
drag-and-drop
functionality would be complicated because of data-format-dependence, and
apparently I was right. In fact, drag-and-drop uses a lot of the same
mechanisms
as the clipboard. Maybe next, I'll go back and register a clipboard format
for
my app and use that instead of my home-made clipboard-which for the record
works
fine, but still.

Thanks a lot.
