How to make my Active X control in mfc respond to the events dragenter
and dragover events. I cannot find the dragenter and dragover
functions in the class wizard. i tried to add them manually but
nothing happens. COleDropTarget had the onDragEnter and onDragOver
methods. i have an object of COleDropTarget and my main window is
registered with it as a droptarget. how do i proceed from here?.

I believe ActiveX controls respond to OLEDragEnter and OLEDragover
events. You might have to rewrite your drag and drop functions to OLE
Drag/Drop. I wish I could be of further help, but it's difficult to
debug a program without access to the source code. If you can give
further details on your problem and what you have tried, that would
help a lot. Let me know if you have more questions.

Hi, my guess is i need to ovverride the onDragEnter and onDragOver
functions of COleDropTarget class.  the base class of my active x
control is COleControl. Now how will i create a class with the base
class COleDropTarget and override the two mathods. then i create an
object of the type of the new class.

thanks

Hi sumi

class COleDropTargetOverrided  :  public COleDropTarget 
{
...

then 

COleDropTargetOverrided::onDragEnter 
{
 // your override here

and

COleDropTargetOverrided::onDragOver
{
 // your override here


Is this what you want?

Hi Have derived a class from COleDropTarget.
I need to override the OnDrawEnter and OnDrawOver so that when files
are dragged into my mfc active x control the back ground picture has
to change.
How do i achive this?. 

In my main control class onDraw method i am doing the drawing of
picture. how would i call this ondraw method from my the obDrawEnter
method?. or is ther anyother way to draw a picture on my active x
control when files are dragged onto the control.

also, i am not sure if the onDrawEnter method is called at all. when i
place break point in the onDrawEnter method the container says it is
an invalid place for the break point.
Thanks
sumi
