Re: FTC 1.1 beta 3

I've been having loads of filetype issues lately. I reported one of them to you a while back, where one of my document types was being interpreted as a "FTC drop object" or something like that. I worked around this issue, but now I'm having problems where that same document type shows up with and empty type property. Could FTC have been the cause? I was pulling my hair out for days over this and finally put in an ugly workaround where I'm now looking at the document's extension rather than its type property. I'd love to go back to the way things used to be if possible. 

I believe we were both plagued by the same problem. So go test out
beta 3 and tell me if it fixes your problem. From my experience in
my other programs and the demo application, the problem is now
fixed.

Basically you can't pass in a reference to a FileType object which
in turn should invoke the convert operator which will return a
string for the AcceptFileDrop call. You have to send in a literal
string for things to work properly. So be wary of invoking convert
operators on FileType objects.
