Been there. I'm just being sure that I haven't missed something myself. mx_internal is a bit dangerous of course.

Ummm.....epic brain fart fail? Can't see the forest for the trees? Out of the 23,598 methods...we remembered all but that one.... :-) Adrian Tracy Spratt wrote: Any reason you are not using the List.calculateDropIndex() method?

We are using this on an ADG and hence my example below: You could grab the internal targetGrids dropData get the dropData.index...check it and if its not the value you want, perform an event.preventDefault and stopPropagation... private function adg_DragEvent(event:DragEvent):void { var targetGrid:AdvancedDataGrid = event.currentTarget as AdvancedDataGrid; use namespace mx_internal; var dropData:Object = targetGrid.mx_internal::_dropData; adgIndex = dropData.index; if (adgIndex > 4) { targetGrid.hideDropFeedback(event); targetGrid.selectedItems = new Array(); event.preventDefault(); event.stopPropagation(); } } HTH!

The problem I'm facing is that even though my dragEnter event handler doesn't call the DragManager.acceptDragDrop(UIComponent), it still allows me to drop it.
