hi scott....

any update on drag and drop....

[Demosthine]

Good Morning.

Sorry about the delay. I've been fairly busy lately and haven't had the chance to look too much at it.

From what I downloaded and saw, you are trying to use a Custom Control for this. Have you implemented the Control into your project yet? Would you post that project instead of the Custom Control's example? Overall, I think that this method is going to be more complicated than continueing the last project I helped with.

Good Afternoon.

When you do have the available code, go ahead and post it so that we can better help you. Without a more information and the working book, it's harder to see what you're doing versus what will work. No reason to code a bunch that doesn't do what you want.

Hi shamsam1,

I am thinking that you already have the path to the dwg file with the path to the png file right?
I am also thinking that once you have this information, when you are dragging the png file over the acad window you would be able to "release" this file and on the mouse up event tell acad to open this drawing.

You could imbed the model window in your form. This will take a long time to load.

As Demosthine said if you post some code that you are working on it will help us help you. Otherwise we would think you just want us to do it for you.
