It looks to me more like the .ShellPath of the folderitem rather than it's absolute path...

For some reason, I am now able to run the generated application (more or less) I put on a QPS 512 MB Memory Stick MS-DOS formatted with Disk Utilities (on Mac OS X)... (*)


Drag and Drop:
--------------

a. folder
I get in Obj.Text: "media:/sda1/2004-11-29%20Blozo%20The% 20Gone" (without the quotes).

In fact, it seems to be the AbsolutePath of the dropped folder (whose name is 2004-11-29 Blozo The Gone, a Popeye story that started on 2004-11-29).

sda1 is the Memory Stick "location"...

b. file
I get in Obj.Text: "media:/sda1/2004-11-29%20Blozo%20The%20Gone/ Popeye_20041129.gif" (without the quotes). It is the absolute path of the dropped gif file. (the first strips for the test story).


Paste a screenshot:
-------------------
Same kind of trouble I get with 'Drag and Drop':

In Clipboard.Text, I funnily get the pathname of the image I copy from Konqueror... And a screenshot (opened by KolourPaint and copied from there) gives: unknow data type... either it is RawData or PrivateData... don't know... The reported text comes from the Else (the one after If Clipboard.PictureAvailable, and Clipboard.TextAvailable)...


Idea someone ?

PS: it seems to me that a reliable way to execute the application is to use the Terminal: cd ../ a little, cd media/sda1/ and ./ the application...
