afaik: not for things that come from outside your app. From within the app you could fake something like having two canvases and a floating window (style 0) showing some image. But that only gives you d&d from canvas1 to canvas2.

You can also try WinBlitz3D (though it's made for B3D I've managed to use some if it's features in BlitzPlus)

Just in case you didn't know, BlitzMax (with the MaxGUI module) allows you to accept file drag n' drops into your app natively. Have a look for EVENT_WINDOWACCEPTFILES. Obviously there's no point paying for BlitzMax if you *just* want this feature but I thought I should let you know.
