I believe you can accomplish this with setting the dragdata on mousedown, and
using dragenter after that:
On MouseDown
Set the dragdata to "Yo Mama"
End mousedown
In the group, card, or stack script:
On DragEnter
If the dragdata = "Yo Mama" then
Set the label of the target to "Greetings"
End if
End dragenter
I will play with this approach in a stack, and see if it works. A dragenter
message is only sent of the dragdata is not empty.

Jonathan,
I have a palette of 18 buttons that I want to act upon once a mouse
down has been pressed. SO if I press the mouseDown I want to move from
btn to btn and see a label for that btn and do some other things. But
any messages are sent back to the original control that received the
mouseDown including the mouseUp, mousewithin, mouseenter, mouseleave,
mousestilldown etc. Even the mousemove gets sent.
I had to use a mouseDown with a call to another message and do a 'send
in'. Then I had to do a 'if the mouse is up' and a 'if the mouse is
down' in order to do what I need. But now it only works sporadically.
I just need a Down message that works when the mouse is down and KNOWS
what btn it is over.
I used this script from Eric:
on mouseDown
global theKeys, thecheck
if the short name of the target is among the lines of theKeys then --
if "button" is in the target then
CheckOtherButtons -- â
end if
end mouseDown
---------------------------------------
on CheckOtherButtons
global theKeys, thecheck
if the mouse is up then
set the hilite of btn thecheck to false
revspeak "mouse up" && thecheck
put "" into thecheck
exit CheckOtherButtons
end if
if thecheck is not empty then
set the hilite of btn thecheck to false
end if
repeat for each line i in theKeys --with i = 1 to the number of btns
if the mouseLoc is within the rect of btn i then
set the hilite of btn i to true
put i into thecheck
cPreviewKey i
end if
end repeat
send "CheckOtherButtons" to me in 5 milliseconds -- 50
end CheckOtherButtons
