Dragging and droping files is it a bug?

Posted: Mon Dec 15, 2008 11:10 AM

Besides from explorer its not possible to drag and drop files to the application.

Is this a bug or simply it's implemented yet?

Antonio,

>Besides from explorer its not possible to drag and drop files to the application.

If you are refering to dropping emails from Outlook, the emails are not a file, but rather a record in a database. So, when you drop it there is no filename for FW to work with.

If you wish to do this, I suggest you Google it and see how it is done in other languages. I suspect you are going to have to use OLE.

James,

When I drag email messages the FWH does not fires any message to be worked upon. It simply put the forbbiden cursor.
