OLEStartDrag Event

Description

Occurs when the commandbar's OLEDrag method is performed, or when the commandbar component initiates an OLE drag/drop operation when the OLEDragMode property is set to Automatic.

This event specifies the data formats and drop effects that the source component supports. It can also be used to insert data into the DataObject object.

Syntax

Public Event OLEStartDrag( _
    ByVal Data As DataObject, _
    ByRef AllowedEffects As Long _
)

Parameters

• Data: A DataObject object containing formats that the source will provide and, optionally, the data for those formats. If no data is contained in the DataObject, it is provided when the control calls the GetData method. The programmer should provide the values for this parameter in this event. The SetData and Clear methods cannot be used here.

• AllowedEffects: The source component should use the logical Or operator against the supported values and place the result in the Effects parameter. The target component can use this value to determine the appropriate action (and what the appropriate user feedback should be).

Remarks

The source component should use the logical Or operator against the supported values and place the result in the Effects parameter. The target component can use this value to determine the appropriate action (and what the appropriate user feedback should be).
