Programmably create a file list on drag/drop

I am looking for explanation/sample/tutorial to allow the creation of a d/d
object that can be dropped on another app and allow that app to see the
object dropped as a file list (ala file explorer).

I have a listview that has a list of files that have certain attributes
(determined when the listview is populated). I would like to be able to
select certain listview items and then drag those items to another app. If
I use explorer it will populate the destination app with those file names.
I know there is an method to create the object by overriding the normal
behaviour of the listview as a source.

Any ideas?
