Places data in the OLE drag-and-drop DataObject. Available at run time only.

oDataObject.SetData(eData [, nFormat | cFormat])

Parameters

eData

Specifies the data placed on the DataObject. If you omit the optional nFormat and cFormat arguments, Visual FoxPro places the data on the DataObject in the CF_TEXT and CFSTR_OLEVARIANT formats. If eData is an array, precede eData with an ampersand (@). An array is placed on the DataObject in the CFSTR_OLEVARIANTARRAY format. An error is generated if eData is an object reference or a general field, or the array contains an object reference.

nFormat| cFormat

Specifies the format of the data placed on the DataObject. The following table lists the values for some common data formats with a description of each format. You can specify a user-defined format with cFormat. In this case, eData must be of character type or a binary type created with CREATEBINARY( ).

Data format*	nFormat| cFormat	Description
CF_TEXT	1	Text format.
CF_OEMTEXT	7	Text format containing characters in the OEM character set.
CF_UNICODETEXT	13	Unicode text format. Note Available only for versions of Visual FoxPro running on Windows NT 4.0 or later.
CF_FILES or CF_HDROP	15	A handle that identifies a list of files, such as a set of files dragged from the Windows Explorer.
CFSTR_OLEVARIANTARRAY	"OLE Variant Array"	An array. Multiple values can be transferred in a single drag-and-drop operation with this format. For example, this format can be used to drag a set of items in a list box to another list box.
CFSTR_OLEVARIANT	"OLE Variant"	A variant. All data types in Visual FoxPro are represented as variants. This format can be used to drag and drop Visual FoxPro data without losing the data type.
CFSTR_VFPSOURCEOBJECT	"VFP Source Object"	A reference to the Visual FoxPro drag source object.

* Defined in FOXPRO.H.
