I need some help for a drag/drop operation under MacOsX using Rb 5.5. I do some drag operation using folderitem variables, but i need to check where the drogp action have been made to validate or cancel the drop.

In fact, i want to cancel every drop that have been made on the desktop on any foler, just and validate every drop that have been made onto an application (InDesign for exemple)

Drag sources don't validate drags, the provide their data to drag pasteboard and when dropped, the drag destination validates whether it really will accept the drop or not. However even a true validation (where if it's not accepted for some reason, you can cancel it, and the drag effect will visualize that) isn't a feature in REALbasic.
