I'm trying to implement dragging of link urls from webbrowsers to a Win32 application. It works fine using Firefox and Google Chrome, the link shows up as text in my IDataObject structure. But when dragging a link from Internet Explorer it seems to block it somehow.
Using the EnumFormatEtc and GetClipboardFormatName functions I can detect that the IDataObject contains three formats; UntrustedDragDrop, msSourceUrl and DragImageBits.
However, it seems I cant extract any data using IDataObject->QueryGetData(...) and IDataObject->GetData(...), I've tried using the corresponding enums to the formats.
Is dragging links out of internet explorer simply forbidden, or is it any way I can get around this and read the link?
