Remarks
If the data requested is a file, the 15 (fpCFFiles) value is not valid. Use the fpDataObject SetData method's Format parameter to retrieve the data.
The OLESetData event is initiated for the source control when the target control requests data and the fpDataObject does not have data yet for the requested format because delayed rendering was used in the OLEStartDrag event. The data is placed in the fpDataObject using the SetData method.
