Hope this is on topic...
During : (Form event=On Begin Drag Over) in the source list, I put the
information about the item being dragged on the Pasteboard
LOAD RECORD([Item])
C_OBJECT($obj)
OB SET($obj;"$rec";Record number([Item]))
OB SET($obj;"$proc";Current process)
OB SET($obj;"$source";"LocEdit")
$text:=JSON Stringify($obj)
// set your data type
SET TEXT TO PASTEBOARD($text)
Later on in the destination process, mouse button just up from On Begin Drag
Over, the information was read back out...
: (Form event=On Drop)
// check here to see if it's your data type on the
clipboard
C_OBJECT($obj)
$obj:=JSON Parse(Get text from pasteboard)
$rec:=OB Get($obj;"$rec";Is longint)
$proc:=OB Get($obj;"$proc";Is longint)
$source:=OB Get($obj;"$source";Is text)
If ($proc#Current process) & ($source="LocEdit")...
