Use OLE drag and drop, and define your own private format for passing the 
object.  Be careful, though - you can't just transfer an actual object from one 
process to another, but you _can_ pass enough information to recreate it.

See the examples on our web site, that use our components, in particular: 
<http://www.unitoops.com/uoole/examples/customtest.htm> (shows how to drag a 
double from one program to another)
<http://www.unitoops.com/uoole/examples/customtest2.htm> (shows how to drag 
multiple types of data, including custom data, simultaneously - e.g., if you 
wanted to provide both your own private format _and_ a text version for 
dragging into Word, etc).

Regards, Jim.
