Just a note, The classes have a small "gotcha" if not used in VFP9 as there is a global include file (foxpro.h) which it expects in the VFP 9 folder so just change the "include file" reference in the classes if it is anywhere else.
Dave Crozier -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Crozier Sent: 14 February 2007 16:18 To: 'ProFox Email List' Subject: OLE Drag Drop Classes To All, Following Malcolm’s (I think it was him or Michael and I apologise for not remembering) post regarding OLE drag/drop in VFP onto PageFrames where he wanted to flip over pages in the PageFrame when the OLE object was moved over the PageFrame got an idea in my brain going. Hence, I’ve investigated OLD drag/drop further as I’m also on the next stage of the Organizer project that I’ve not touched for a few months. Apart from the OLE Drag/Drop is just plain cool once you can get your head around it. In the Organizer, I thought it would be nice to be able to use OLE drag/Drop as opposed the right click drag drop method that I’ve always used in the past so the demo is a result of this investigation and two classes that can be used anywhere OLE Drag/Drop is required on grids or pageframes All you need to do is drag/drop a class onto either a PageFrame or a grid and this gives instant Drag/Drop without any coding. Also on the PageFrame you get a “Hot Button” effect where the mouse can simply be moved over the page tabs and the active page will be changed automatically even when NOT drag/Dropping which is useful. You can download the demonstration and classes from: http://www.replacement-software.co.uk/vfp/OLE_Drag_Drop/VFP_OLE_Drag_Drop.zi p I’m going to blog about the development next week after I return from Italy and the full classes should be finished then with a revamp of the Organizer so you’ll have to wait until then to sample the finished product but I’m about 90% of the way there with the OLE drag/drop. As usual any comments/observations are welcome good or bad. I’ve lots of additions to make regarding dragging from Explorer/Windows/ Word/Excel etc into VFP but that will come later on. Hope it is of use to the group. Dave Crozier -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
