Drag and Drop .msg file (1 Viewer)

[michaeljryan78]

I have a form that cotains an OLE object control and I want to be able to drag and drop an email from Outlook to the form.

I am able to do it now, but the email has to be dragged to the users desktop, then to the form, then deleted off the desktop so there is no error msg when the OLE is viewed.

I want to make this a simpler porcess by just dragging from Outlook to Access without the steps in between. If I have to modify the field in wich the file is being dropped I can, but I have been unable to find the answer to this questions in any forums yet.

Please Help!!!
