Dropping FILES **to** other applications
« on: January 15, 2020, 08:47:27 pm »
Hello,

I have an application that stores file name and path.

I needed dbgrid (or stringgrid) that has the file name as it was dragged to another application, to open the file in that other application.

And that on OSX.

Does anyone have any tips?

Is your application programm prepared to accept files "dropped" onto it by any other program? If not then you're likely SOL.
