[AccessD] A200K:Get file name after drag and drop

Hi team

 

Does anyone know how I can determine the file name of a file after it has been
dragged from (say the desktop) to an RTF field I have on an Access form?

 

Basically I be will write a reasonably simple import routine for a determined
file type

 

Normally I would have a text box on a form that stores the path and allow users
to invoke a browse dialogue box.

 

But I'd rather just let the user 'grab' the file and drop it onto a
pre-determined place (The RTF Field) on one of my forms - get the file name and
then perform the import routine

 

Make sense?

 

Many thanks in advance

 

Darren
