an associated \helpref{wxDropTarget}{wxdroptarget} object. Normally, you will
call \helpref{wxWindow::SetDropTarget}{wxwindowsetdroptarget} during window

wxDropTarget and override its pure virtual methods. Alternatively, you may
derive from \helpref{wxTextDropTarget}{wxtextdroptarget} or
\helpref{wxFileDropTarget}{wxfiledroptarget} and override their OnDropText()
or OnDropFiles() method.
\item {\bf Drop:} When the user releases the mouse over a window, wxWindows
-queries the associated wxDropTarget object if it accepts the data. For this,
+asks the associated wxDropTarget object if it accepts the data. For this,
a \helpref{wxDataObject}{wxdataobject} must be associated with the drop target
and this data object will be responsible for the format negotiation between
the drag source and the drop target. If all goes well, then \helpref{OnData}{wxdroptargetondata}
will get called and the wxDataObject belonging to the drop target can get
filled with data.
