Drag/Drop path/filename from Outlook message attachment

Hi all,

Anyone know to get the full path name of a file dragged from an Outlook
message? I can get the filename itself so far, without the path.

For Outlook 2000 I know the path would be <Internet Temp
Files>\OLK9\filename.ext. But I cant really hardcode this since I dont
know which version of Outlook will be used .. or even if Outlook would be
used all the time.

Thx in advance..
