prevent user from item drag and drop

[Benoit Greuzat]

Can i prevent user from drag and drop an item in a public folder ? (Outlook
2002, Echange server 2000)
Any suggestion would be appreciated.

IFAIK there is no easy way to prevent drag and drop.
Instead you have two alternatives.

1. The simpler one - If you have created a custom form for
this PF, define a global boolean and set this to true in
the Item_Open event. Then in the Item_Save save only if
the boolean is true. So even though the user will still be
able to drag and drop changes will not be saved.

2. You can code the Item Explorer but it is quite
complicated! Lookup the MSDN for that.
