No, I haven't heard of any talk. I just tried to drag&drop a message
onto the desktop, and it didn't work. Why don't you try what you
suggest and let us all know?

My guess is that you will have to export & import.

Hi Mark.

At 3:46 AM on Tuesday, July 08, 2003 it seems you posted the
following to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in regards to
drag/drop: 

S>> What action do you wish to take with the

  Both these reasons are why I asked the question in the
  first place. Still, I don't know why I shouldn't be able
  to select, drag & drop a TB! msg outside of TB!.

  Should I make this a programming request?

I use a hotkey activated filter with the only action of Run External
Program.  The line typed in is:

myeditor %1 ...

In my case, the ... represents calling an editor macro to strip the
header and everything on or after the cut line (without such a macro,
you get the whole thing).

That way I can save or edit the body.  If I need the whole thing, I
just press the editor's undo key and it's all restored.

What action do you wish to take with the composite message with all

I didn't realize that!  Gee, I seem to learn something new everyday!

I would suggest that a Quick Template triggered on SHFT / ALT or

Not true!  {F9} CTRL-A, CTRL-C gives you the entire message source.

I would think a message.msg file at the target. For example the
desktop.

What would you be expecting the end result of the drag-and-drop to be?

When programming the drag-and-drop operation, the developer has to say
how the drag-and-drop is going to be handled. Probably in TB, the only
information is the either an unique ID that points to the message or
the whole message structure(message, attachments, flags, color group,
etc...). If all you want is the same as copy and paste of the message
text, then that's a different end-result than moving the message from
one folder to another.

Just my 2 cents.
