Sorry Mr. Lebeau maybe I've been not clear, I love English, but here I've 
not many opportunities to improve it :-(
I've been using  Mr. Chandler's DragSourcePack components for drag & drop 
from my application to other applications (i.e. Nero Burning Rom as my 
application is a Media Player and I use that for creating Audio CDs).
To accoplish that I reused Mr. Chandler's sample project that comes with the 
DragSourcePack modifying it slightly to make it able to drag a "file list" 
(changing CF_TEXT to CF_HDROP and then filling the DROPFILES struct when 
required to get data).
Now I would like to drag the "file list" to the windows explorer wishing it 
to copy all the files in the list to the folder I dropped them into ...
Unluckily it doesn't work and explorer does nothing when I drop the list 
into it :-(  Maybe I have to use another Clipboard format ... or worse Mr. 
Chandler's components are not complete for that task :-(
Have You any idea about how to do that? (Hoping I've been clear enough this 
time :-) )
 Thank You for Your reply,
Stefano B.
