Hi Pat,
Take a look at the documentation for "Get file from pasteboard” at:
https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17.2/Get-file-from-pasteboard.301-4387094.en.html
<https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17.2/Get-file-from-pasteboard.301-4387094.en.html>
Put the following in the object method of a text variable and drag a file atop
the text variable. Remember to check-mark the “On Drop” form event.
—
Case of
: (Form event=On Drop)
OBJECT Get pointer(Object current)->:=Get file from pasteboard(1)
End case
—
The text object will display the file’s absolute path.
Best regards,
- Jeremy
