I had nothing specific in mind when I wrote this, but here are some
examples that I would be likely to want/use:
>>within a MetaCard project/application?
text, from one field to another
listbox items, within a listbox, and from one listbox to another.
>>between two MetaCard project/applications?
text, from one field to another
listbox items from one listbox to another.
objects, with their custom properties intact
>>between a MetaCard project/application and another application?
Files! This would be great. I have in the past written many small apps to
perform a simple task on many files, selected either by dropping them on
the application's icon, or dragging them into a window, either resulting
in their path being entered into a listbox field. Being able to do this
cross-platform with MetaCard would be great.
Also, text from and to other apps.
I'm sure there are others, but those are some examples.
