Changing an Icon during an OLEdrag drop operation

how can you change the icon during an ole dragdrop, not a normal dragdrop?

Program up the xxx_OLEStartDrag routine, by setting the DragIcon to whatever icon you want.

that only works if your using the normal DragDrop method... not ole.. any other suggestions

This is a very complex issue and requires that you understand all the
things that are happening behind the scenes. When the drag cursor is
pulled over another drop target, you will get a OLEGiveFeedback event.
There isn't much you can do here, but you can change
DefaultCursors = False and then set a custom mouse icon.

DefaultCursors = False
Set Screen.MouseIcon = <someothericonpicture>
Screen.MousePointer = MousePointerConstants.vbCustom

thanks alot.. we can always count on you thinker :)
