Maybe Benoit could do something similar (but better coding of course ;) )
I do not trust my understanding of the Drag method and checking
Drag.Pending and exactly what to do.
I could need more/better handling than..







*Public Sub fvwChoose_MouseMove()  If Not $bDragFiles Then Return  If
Mouse.Left Then     If Drag.Pending Then Return
fvwChoose.Drag(GetPath(), "text/plain")  EndifEnd*
