Hi, I keep getting this in my DnD code: java.awt.dnd.InvalidDnDOperationException: The operation requested cannot be performed by the DnD system since it is not in the appropriate state Isn't that a great generic error message? Gotta love it. Does anyone know what causes this, or how to fix it? It used to happen only sporadically, but now seems to happen every time with my code :( I've tried decompiling the sun classes that are throwing this exception and seeing what's actually happening, but with not much success so far, since it tends to go native fairly quickly. Thanks for any tips, dstn. ---------------------------------------------------- -- Dustin Lang, [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- (java developer, linux guy, freak with rainbow hair) User, n.: a particularly slow and unreliable input/ output device that is attached by default to the standard input and output streams.
