Using this code but the second part does not work as the first section cancel it out. If I swap the \*\*clipboard \*\*with the \*\*getvariable \*\*the same thing happens. Does anyone know how i can have both codes working?

```auto
Application.dragdrop.enable = true;
Application.dragdrop.onDragGetData = function ()
{
    return Application.clipboard.paste();
} 
{
    return FlashPlayer.getVariable("_root.currentSentence");
}

```
