Thanks for the links, Gert. So it turns out that this is a known bug with drag and drop. http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10815 DaVince, I've tried your suggestions but no success. The cursor doesn't change anywhere over the target app. My workaround is a WinXP guest running in VirtualBox. I'm a recent convert from WinXP and have the XP guest for other apps not supported by Wine. Cheers.
