 win32gui.BringWindowToTop(pwin) 

If it is a bug, it is a bug in the Win32 API.  This same code also does
not work in a console app written in C.

Use SetForegroundWindow instead of BringWindowToTop.  That works.

Re: [python-win32] Drag and Drop from Outlook

[kc106_2005-win32]

Thanks for the reply, Mark.

I did a copy from Outlook, and then run dump_clipboard.  Here's what comes up:

Dumping all clipboard formats...
Clipboard format 49161
 - got 4 bytes via HGLOBAL
 - got 4 bytes via IStream
Clipboard format 49955
 - got 168 bytes via HGLOBAL

, in DumpClipboard
medium = do.GetData(fetc_query)
pywintypes.com_error: (-2147024882, 'Not enough storage is available to complete
 this operation.', None, None)

Now, if I drag a message from Outlook and drop it onto a wxpython application 
and then run dump_clipboard.py.  Here's what I got:

Dumping all clipboard formats...

Does that give you any hints?

the proper way of retrieving the dropped Outlook info? 

I'm not sure what you mean by CF_HDROP not being recognized - it works  for me. 
 
Using Windows Explorer, select a file and copy it to the  clipboard.  Then 
run 
the following script: 


import win32clipboard, win32con 
win32clipboard.OpenClipboard() 
try: 
got = win32clipboard.GetClipboardData(win32con.CF_HDROP) 
print got 
finally: 
win32clipboard.CloseClipboard() 

You should get back a tuple listing the filenames on the clipboard.  I'm  not 
sure what outlook does here, but you may also like to copy the  outlook object 
to the clipboard and run the  win32com/demos/dump_clipboard.py script to see 
what can be found. 


HTH, 

Mark
