TDBRichEdit, Drag and Drop (not)

[Kevin Davidson]

The regular Delphi (3.0) RichEdit automatically implements drag and
drop. You can drag text from one RichEdit control to another, or move
text around within a control.

However, TDBRichEdit doesn't work that way. I haven't been able to
manually get a TDBRichEdit to accept a DROP even by setting up the drop
events manually.

How can I get this to work?

Thanks,

Right. The standard Microsoft RichEdit control takes care of that.

Not sure, but perhaps Inprise implemented things a bit differently. Our
components should be able to help you out, though (see URLs below).
