Abstract
The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for dragging and dropping objects between local and remote modules. Terminal server components simulate the functionality of participants in drag and drag operations to facilitate the dragging and dropping of objects between local and remote modules and vice versa. The terminal server components interact locally to communicate with modules participating in a drag and drop operation. The terminal server components also send messages over a terminal server session to relay appropriate drag and drop information to corresponding terminal server components on the other end of the terminal server session.
