Richard,

To my knowledge that's impossible (on every OS). As I understand the
drag/drop paradigm, you can't see where something is dropped to if the
target is another application.

You may want to consider trying a different paradigm if you need to do some
processing after the drag operation completes. For example, you could
either:

* Drag a folder from the finder into your app and use that as the
destination or
* Select the files and use "ask file" to save the "operation" to a target
location.

Just some thoughts.
