When both a source and target application store the data in the same native mechanism, a transform is not required. Instead, the native Move and Copy actions for that mechanism can be performed by the target. An application must completely define the proper procedure for performing that action. In the case of files, the native Move action is defined as a DosMove or DosCopy/DosDelete. The native Copy action is DosCopy. An application need not support all of the basic actions; it can choose to define additional native mechanism actions, indicated by the DO_UNKNOWN action in the DRAGINFO data structure.
