I would like to drag a text from Notepad or any other program and drop
it into a textbox. I have not yet been able to figure out how to do
that. Can anybody help?

This will not work in Notepad, but I am not sure later OS'es Notepad's
support OLE drag drop(In XP it doesn't). See MSDN for "OLEDragDrop Event".

If you want something that works specifically with Notepad, search the
newsgroups for "vb WM_GETTEXT Notepad".

Just want to point out the obvious in case you are trying to over complicate
things. You can just use the standard Windows cut and paste functions to get
text from Notepad (or any other application) to your text box without having
to code anything.
