OLE Drag and Drop Demo

This sample shows how to implement automatic and manual OLE drag and drop using VSFlexGrid 8.0.

OLE drag and drop can be a little confusing at first, because of all the properties, methods, objects and events that may be involved in the process. However, you only need to handle a few of these events in order to make OLE drag and drop work for you. This demo illustrates the basic concepts and procedures you will need.

Here is how the final application will look:

The three controls shown are OLE drag drop sources and targets. This means you can drag data from one control to the others, or between any of the controls and external applications.

Step 1: Create the Controls

Step 2: Initialize the Controls

Step 3: Manual OLE Drag

Step 4: Manual OLE Drop
