I am trying to drag and drop an icon from the desktop into a textbox ,then
extract the program path,when I do this I get the path below for calculator
C:\windows\desktop\util\calc.lnk
I need the program path so I can add it to database and use it in a
hotkey program. I can drag and drop a file from file manager.but not
a icon.please email me
