SUMMARY

It is possible to move data between the applications listed at the beginning of this article by dragging the information from a document in one application to a document in another application. For example, you can drag information from a worksheet in Microsoft Excel for Windows to a document in Microsoft Word for Windows NT. Or, you can drag information from a document in Microsoft Word for Windows NT to a slide in Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows.

You can drag information between 16-bit and 32-bit applications because the OLE layer for 16-bit/32-bit interaction exists under Microsoft Windows NT version 3.5 or later.

MORE INFORMATION

Dragging data between applications is different from using the Copy and Cut commands on the Edit menu because the data that you drag is not placed on the Clipboard. When you drag data to another application, you can't use the Paste command to paste another copy of the data.
