craig,
your post is unclear on your need. this is probably because you are a bit
unclear on the technologies.

if you need to to drag a folder to your application's icon and have that
folded treated by your application, then this is not the drag manager it is
appleevents from the finder and correct settings in your application's
bundle bits as you hint at in your post.

if you need to drag a folder to a window in your application and then treat
that folder, this is correctly the dragmanager.

for the first case, code has been posted in this list quite a few times; my
advise would be to search the archives.

for the second case, alain recently debugged this for matt's mp3 jukebox i
believe. as this is open source, i'd advise you to download that source and
seek out the revelant parts. i also believe that alain and waverly have a
demo of this precise function hanging around somewhere.
