Hi Jan,

I know this link and where it was moved to and I found the code including
examples. But they don't work (at least not with Oulook 2007). If you have
time have a look at it:

You need OLELIB.TLB from the site

Then (IIRC) you need 'Get dropped attachments from Outlook
messages' also from the site.

It definitely works with Outlook 2007

Hi there,

Does anybody how to drag Outlook attachments to a listbox and save it as a
file? So far I found out that the dropped dataobject contains the
FileGroupDescriptor and FileGroupDescriptorW formats. It also should
countain the FileContents format but I could not retrieve that. Any
example
code available? I googled a lot on the subject but so far very little
useful
information.

Good news and bad news.

The good news is that I do indeed have a link to a site that
shows you how to achieve this.

The bad news, I've just tried it and the link is dead.
