Adobe Air - Drag image to desktop

Question

Is it possible to drag an image from the inside of an Adobe Air app to the desktop or a folder? This code I'm using is only able to drag an image from app to app: (I'm using Windows XP)

myObject.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mDown);

function mDown(MouseEvent):void
{
var bitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(myObject.width,myObject.height);
bitmapData.draw(myObject);

var myClip:Clipboard = new Clipboard();
myClip.setData(ClipboardFormats.BITMAP_FORMAT, bitmapData);

var objPoint:Point = new Point( -  myObject.mouseX, -  myObject.mouseY);
NativeDragManager.doDrag(myObject, myClip, bitmapData, objPoint);
}

Is there something that needs to be added? Thanks Uli
