There isn't any method, but there is a way. If your application is performing a file promise drag, then the data source method -tableView: namesOfPromisedFilesDroppedAtDestination:dropDestinationforDraggedRowsWithIndexes: will have the drop location as one of its arguments. I don't think your application can get that information if it is not performing a file promise drag.
