Files and Logs grids now support dragging and dropping of files and Outlook mail items

The Files and Logs grids on the following forms now support dragging and dropping of files from Windows Explorer and mail items from Microsoft Outlook:

  • Accounts
  • Clients
  • Security Statements
  • Security Statement Items
  • Task Manager

When dropping an Outlook mail item into the Logs grid, the Log date will be set to the 'Received' date of the mail item.

A new tooltip above the Logs grid informs the User that they can drag files and Outlook mail items to the grid.

Dragging over a grid now highlights the row being dragged over and, in the case of the Logs grid, dropping an item over an existing row will prompt to create a threaded log (except on the Security Statements form if you drop an item onto a Security Item Log rather than a Security Statement Log).

NOTE: The Files grids previously supported drag/drop of items but did not offer to create Logs. The drag/drop functionality of both the Logs grids and the Files grids now works the same apart from the fact that dragging files to a Files grid will prompt to create a linked Log rather than creating one automatically.
