Does anyone know if a B3D app can detect if files are dragged and dropped into its window? I'd love to have this functionality. A method that just uses userlibs would be preferable to a custom DLL.

Here's a Purebasic forum link that has some info on the subject, if it's of any help to you.

The procedures (functions) in the listed code that have an identifier that ends with an underscore are Windows API functions. The underscore is used in Purebasic to differentiate Windows functions from Purebasic ones, so you would need to remove it when accessing the Windows functions via a userlib.

I think there may be a Blitz userlib that lets you access the Windows API functions but I don't have a clue where to get hold of it.

This was not what i expected in a topic of this title :)

Anyways, Halo has a nice userlib with the WinAPI stuff in it.

I THINK his website is www.leadwerks.com :) If it's not there.. then i remember posting the entire thing into a thread on the forums here.

Hmm, that purebasic post is rather helpful. I'll post back here if I can figure out how to impliment it with blitz userlibs.
