TPJCtrlDropFiles
Project: Drop Files Components.
Unit: PJDropFiles.
This non-visual component catches all WM_DROPFILES messages that are received by a control referenced by the ManagedControl property. The component therefore intercepts files dragged from Windows Explorer and dropped on the managed control.
Use TPJCtrlDropFiles when you want to take different actions depending on which control files are dropped on - you can use a different TPJCtrlDropFiles component for each control that can receive file drops.
