event OLEStartDrag (Data as ExDataObject, AllowedEffects as Long)
Occurs when the OLEDrag method is called.

TypeDescription
Data as ExDataObject An ExDataObject object containing formats that the source will provide and, optionally, the data for those formats. If no data is contained in the ExDataObject, it is provided when the control calls the GetData method. The programmer should provide the values for this parameter in this event. The SetData and Clear methods cannot be used here.
AllowedEffects as Long A long containing the effects that the source component supports. The possible values are listed in Settings. The programmer should provide the values for this parameter in this event
In the /NET Assembly, you have to use the DragEnter event as explained here:

The Background( exScheduleOLEDropPosition) property specifies the visual appearance of the line to be shown when the cursor is hovering the schedule part of the control, during an OLE drag and drop operation. 

The settings for AllowEffects are:

The source component should logically Or together the supported values and places the result in the AllowedEffects parameter. The target component can use this value to determine the appropriate action (and what the appropriate user feedback should be). You may wish to defer putting data into the ExDataObject object until the target component requests it. This allows the source component to save time.  If the user does not load any formats into the ExDataObject, then the drag/drop operation is canceled. Use exCFFiles and Files property to add files to the drag and drop data object.

The idea of drag and drop in exSchedule control is the same as in other controls. To start accepting drag and drop sources the exSchedule control MUST have the OLEDropMode property to exOLEDropManual. Once that is is set, the exSchedule starts accepting any drag and drop sources. 

The first step is if you want to be able to drag items from your exSchedule control to other controls the idea is to handle the OLE_StartDrag event. The event passes an object ExDataObject (Data) as argument. The Data and AllowedEffects can be changed only in the OLEStartDrag event. The OLE_StartDrag event is fired when user is about to drag items from the control. The AllowedEffect parameter and SetData property must be set to continue drag and drop operation, as in the following sample:

The following VB sample collects the focused/selected events and start dragging them ( you can drop them to a WinWord, Excel application for instance ):

Private Sub Schedule1_OLEStartDrag(ByVal Data As EXSCHEDULELibCtl.IExDataObject, AllowedEffects As Long)
    With Schedule1
        Dim e As EXSCHEDULELibCtl.Event
        Set e = .EventFromPoint(-1, -1)
        If Not e Is Nothing Then
            Dim sDragDropText As String
            If Not (e.Selected) Then
                sDragDropText = sDragDropText & "Start: " & e.Start & ", End: " & e.End & vbCrLf
            Else
                Dim s As Variant
                For Each s In .Selection
                    sDragDropText = sDragDropText & "Start: " & s.Start & ", End: " & s.End & vbCrLf
                Next
            End If
            
            AllowedEffects = 1
            Data.SetData sDragDropText
        End If
    End With
End Sub
