How to Drag and Drop Word Doc onto VB Program?
My Visual Basic program uses VB automation to
- open a word file
- analyze the data
- close Word
- open an Excel file
- analyze the data
- open a new worksheet
- put results in
- close Excel
- give results to the program user
- ask to save/not save
- end
How can I impelment "drag and drop" for word file into my program?
My goal is that a user runs my program, then clicks the word file and drags it to the running program, which then proceeds with the analysis and the rest of the program runs.
