OLEDropFile event (Main Control)

Visual Basic example
Visual C++ 4.0 example

Syntax void OLEDropFile (BSTR pszName);

Overview:  Refer to Loading a Bitmap from a File.

Remarks

OLEDropFile event occurs each time a file is dropped in a drag and drop operation, if OLEDropAllowed is set to TRUE. The event takes the name of the file being dropped as a parameter.

To avoid loading the dropped file, set OLEDropAutoLoad to FALSE in the event.

After returning from the event, the Main control determines whether the OLEDropAutoLoad is TRUE. If it is TRUE, the file is loaded. If it is FALSE, no further action is taken.
