Hi everyone,
I'm hoping someone in the group has had experience with this problem:
I was looking through the list of ActiveX controls in Access 97 and found a
Microsoft Tree Control which looks pretty cool.
I could set up the properties with no problem, but my question is...how do
you give it a control source? For the life of me, I can't seem to find out
how to populate it.
Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul 3 2500

It's not only among the most useful, but may even be the most used. I
have five in a single tab control. And I have a couple more on other
forms. I literally couldn't produce websites, as I do with Access,
without treeview controls. There's no substitute for the
functionality. There are a host of other commercial treeviews,
however, for sale - not from Microsoft.

It's not complicated once you know. A 'child could do it', kind of
thing. A year and a half ago, I stumbled onto treeviews, myself, and
put up a basic, simple working app to duplicate - sort of - the file
open dialog. It was meant as an example/tutorial on the use of
treeviews; the sort of thing I had wished were available when I went
looking for just the info that you are: http://www.google.com/gr************...******@4ax.com
At points it's a little primitive, as I look back on it. But I was
brand new to the subject, at the time. And a number of finer points
are omitted, which I discovered later on. It does work, and shows how
to fill out the box, and just what you want to do. What it does may
arguably not be that useful. But it works.
If you try, in addition, to search "treeview" on Google - look out for
all the good advice that's now out there. Didn't seem as much when I
posted this above message, back when. But there was still quite a bit,
particularly from around 1999-2000.
Hope that helps.
Thanks Mark,
Looks very interesting. I'm going to try it out.

Mark Thanks again for the heads-up,
I noticed in the example you gave that this control was used to list file
structures. However, in the example I saw it was used to list records from
an Access Table. Something like, 1st Level = Customer Name, 2nd Level =
Quote #, 3rd Level = Order #, 4th Level = Final Invoice.
Can this be done with this control?
If so, where do you insert the records source? I did not see that option
for the control.
Thanks,
Paul
