grettings,
Just started to play around with vsto 2005, from what i can see, it isn't possible, but it can't hurt to ask.. I want to drag information from the action task pane into my word document.. Is there any events exposed in the word doc that would allow me to do this
thanks
mj

Actually you can drag and drop information from the Actions Pane into the Microsoft Word document.
In a sample project I created an Actions Pane which contains a text box control. I set the AllowDrop property of the text box control to True and then added to several of the text box events to allow me to drag and drop text from the text box control to the document and from the document to the text box control.
I have included the code from my Actions Pane class below.
==================================
Public Class MyActionPane
Private MouseIsDown As Boolean
Private Sub TextBox1_DragDrop(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.DragDrop
Me.TextBox1.Text = e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.Text)
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_DragEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.DragEnter
If e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Text) Then
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy
End If
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.MouseDown
MouseIsDown = True
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.MouseMove
If MouseIsDown Then
Me.TextBox1.DoDragDrop(Me.TextBox1.Text, DragDropEffects.Copy)
End If
MouseIsDown = False
End Sub
End Class
