Dropping files on a grid

Is it possible? If I call a wx.Grid's .SetDropTarget() method, the target's handler never gets called. Other control work fine with the same approach, but not a grid.

  I'm guessing it's because the grid is a composite class, so what do I have to do to enable a grid to handle dropped files?

Try using the window returned from theGrid.GetGridWindow()
