Can anyone verify this simple but strange bug with dragDrop and WinXP? Thanks!

put in msg box:
go url "http://www.gadgetplugins.com/chippstuff/DragDropBug.rev"


Here's the problem as presented in the above stack:
Create a stack and add a field. Set the script of the field to:

on dragEnter
  set the acceptDrop to true
end dragEnter

on dragDrop
  put the dragData["files"] into me
end dragDrop

Now, dragdrop some files/folders and everything works fine. But try
dragDropping 'My Documents' folder and it doesn't work. Any ideas?

best,
Chipp
