Why not just return the string here?  NSString conforms to NSPasteboardWriting. 
 Then your other methods wouldn't be necessary.

As to why your drop is not being accepted, have you called 
-setDraggingSourceOperationMask:forLocal: on the table view to set an operation 
mask for the non-local case (passing NO for the second parameter)?  You would 
probably want NSDragOperationCopy | NSDragOperationGeneric.
