<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
In outlook express a link in an e-mail is activated when you click the link. As a result, you can use the left mouse button to drag a link, and drop it into an application that can deal with it. Great.<br />
<br />
In outlook, however, it seems the link is activated on the mouse down. Even if you keep the mouse button depressed, in order to drag, it still executes and no drag happens.<br />
<br />
Is that the only possible behaviour or can it be changed? If so, how?<br />
<br />
25 points for sorry - can't be done. 100 for a solution.
