In Rb2005 and Rb2006r1, if I put this line into an Open event of a

Note that I use the display name. Now, in Rb2006r2, this still works
on the Mac but no longer works on Windows builds.
I have no clue what was happening behind the scenes to make this
work before, but I suspect it's working differently now. So, what is
the correct way to tell a RectControl that I want it to accept jpeg
file drops?
What you're doing is correct, and its failure should be reported as a
bug. However, it's not what I would recommend, unless you're taking
your project back and forth to 5.5 or earlier. Instead, just name
the file type object:
me.AcceptFileDrop FileTypes.JPEGImage
I doubt this will fix the problem, since a FileType object converts
itself to a string as the display name, which makes the above code
equivalent to what you wrote (unless you made a typo not evident in
your email). But I recommend it anyway, since it avoids the
possibility of such typos.
