But in events OLEDragDrop i receive only text message (in one string variable From:, To:, Date:, Subject: and Body) and without attachments.

Target Control - TreeView.
I tested Drag and Drop one message from Outlook Express 6.0 and Outlook 2000.
And I receive different string variable.
Example
For Outlook Express From: NikName <email@.....>
For Outlook 2000 Only From
And if I drag and drop message which contain HTML
i receive VB error message 'Method 'GetData' of object 'IVBDataObject' failed'

With outlook express:
Private Sub TreeView1_OLEDragDrop(Data
MsgBox Data.GetData(1)
End Sub
i got all text from: "from" to end of message.
I can't try with attachs since i haven't any msg with them.

But my questions about attachments.
Example:
Drag and drop message from Outlook Express to Explorer ->
I receive in Explorer *.eml file.
Drag and drop message from Outlook 2000 to Explorer ->
I receive in Explorer *.msg file.
Its files have full information about message.
And it i can load with the help CDO and save in database.
Now i use
If Data.GetFormat(vbCFText) Then
iMsg=Data.GetData(vbCFText
But from iMsg I can not receive the all information, necessary to me (attachments!).

This solution is only available to members.

What happens here is:
When you drag msg from Outlook Express to Explorer, you got and .eml file,right?
But.... if you open that file with a text editor, you will get only text!
The attachment is there but in text format encoded with base64 (i think) algorythm. If you want the attachment, you need to decode yourself or you will get nothing.
These are links to base64 tools:
