Drag and Drop

[DKasler]

I have a file list box called file1 and I want to be able to drag a file name from there to an upload box on a website rather than having the user click the browse button and search for the file...

Ive never done anything with drag and drop before so a sample would be nice if it can be provided.

Thanks Much

Here is an example that I know does as you wish. You might be able to send it to the webpage using SendMessage. Is it your webpage?

Well Guys i know how to do the drag and drop and get the path of the file but as dglienna bro said

"send it to the webpage using SendMessage. " <--- how do we tell vb6 to sendmessage to the website to upload the file by the path we give ????

You should start your own thread if you have a question, and link to the old one if you want to comment on something related.

I'm guessing dglienna meant to send the path to a field from which the webpage would take it and upload it (like you have in Yahoo mail when attaching files). But there are many different ways to upload a file, and it depends on the server side too.
