[RESOLVED] drag and drop windows file icons into listbox

[Muddy]

Has anyone done this in VB6? I want to be able to drag (a) file icon(s) from anywhere on the windows desktop to a listbox on a vb6 app form and have the full filepath(s) appear in the listbox.

If anyone can point me to some example code or suggest an approach I would be grateful.

Thanks!

set the ListBox's OLEDropMode to 1-Manual, then:

Private Sub List1_OLEDragDrop(Data As DataObject, Effect As Long, Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    Dim vFile As Variant
    If Data.GetFormat(vbCFFiles) Then
        For Each vFile In Data.Files
            List1.AddItem vFile
        Next vFile
    End If
End Sub

Exactly what I need ... Very nice! Thanks!

And I was imagining a complex API solution ...
