    I have a dialog with two list controls, where i have drag and drop from one list control to other, i am using COleDropTarget object to do this. But i have to restrict user to drag and drop from explorer. Note: If i run application with "run as administrator", list control is restricted the drop, but run as invoker list control is accepting files and folders. How can we avoid drag and drop from explorer with out running as administrator? Thanks.

      Check out things like RevokeDragDrop(), DoDragDrop(), and IDropSource.
