Retrieves a value indicating whether the implementer can render the data that is contained in the a parameter.
public:
int QueryGetData(Microsoft::Aspnet::Snapin::FORMATETC a);public int QueryGetData (Microsoft.Aspnet.Snapin.FORMATETC a);abstract member QueryGetData : Microsoft.Aspnet.Snapin.FORMATETC -> intPublic Function QueryGetData (a As FORMATETC) As IntegerParameters
A pointer to the FORMATETC defining the format, medium, and target device for calls to retrieve data.
Returns
The QueryGetData method supports the standard return values E_INVALIDARG, E_UNEXPECTED, and E_OUTOFMEMORY, as well as the following return values:
| Return value | Description |
|---|---|
| S_OK | A subsequent call to the GetData(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM) method probably will be successful. |
| DV_E_LINDEX | lindex is not valid. |
| DV_E_FORMATETC | pFormatEtc is not valid. |
| DV_E_TYMED | tymed is not valid. |
| DV_E_DVASPECT | dwAspect value. |

Remarks
A client of a data object that implements the IDataObject interface calls the QueryGetData method to determine the likelihood of success of a subsequent call to the GetData(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM) method. A result indicating that this instance of the IDataObject interface can render the data that is contained in the a parameter does not guarantee success in a subsequent call to the GetData(FORMATETC, STGMEDIUM) method.
