If it's an AIR app there are tutorials and documentation online on dragging and dropping from outside the program. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8718123/dragging-from-desktop-to-air-application
If it's a browser app then you may have to use HTML API to accept drag and drop. You can code it yourself using HTML API and ExternalInterface or it looks like Ardisia labs has components for it too. In my opinion, or I've been taught, it's better to buy components if possible bc hundreds of customers are using, testing and catching bugs. On Thu, Dec 10, 2015 at 4:00 AM, Raj U.
