OLEDragDrop Event

Description

Occurs when a source component is dropped onto a target component when the source component determines that a drop can occur.

Syntax

Public Event OLEDragDrop( _
    ByVal Data As DataObject, _
    ByRef Effect As Long, _
    ByVal Button As Integer, _
    ByVal Shift As Integer, _
    ByVal x As Long, _
    ByVal y As Long _
)

Parameters

  • Data
    A DataObject object containing formats that the source will provide and, in addition, possibly the data for those formats. If no data is contained in the DataObject, it is provided when the control calls the GetData method.

  • Effect
    A long integer set by the target component identifying the action that has been performed (if any), thus allowing the source to take appropriate action if the component was moved (such as the source deleting the data).

  • Button
    An integer which acts as a bit field corresponding to the state of a mouse button when it is depressed. The left button is bit 0, the right button is bit 1, and the middle button is bit 2. These bits correspond to the values 1, 2, and 4, respectively. It indicates the state of the mouse buttons; some, all, or none of these three bits can be set, indicating that some, all, or none of the buttons are depressed.

  • Shift
    An integer which acts as a bit field corresponding to the state of the shift, ctrl, and alt keys when they are depressed. The shift key is bit 0, the ctrl key is bit 1, and the alt key is bit 2. These bits correspond to the values 1, 2, and 4, respectively. The shift parameter indicates the state of these keys; some, all, or none of the bits can be set, indicating that some, all, or none of the keys are depressed. For example, if both the ctrl and alt keys were depressed, the value of shift would be 6.

  • x
    A number which specifies the current location of the mouse pointer. The x and y values are always expressed in terms of the coordinate system set by the ScaleHeight, ScaleWidth, ScaleLeft, and ScaleTop properties of the object.

  • y
    A number which specifies the current location of the mouse pointer. The x and y values are always expressed in terms of the coordinate system set by the ScaleHeight, ScaleWidth, ScaleLeft, and ScaleTop properties of the object.
