Linking of several tables in a heirarchical form

[Jacob]

I have a table, SYS_Locations, which lists all of the locations available
for a system.
I.E.:
1 -- Matrix Hall
2 -- Upstairs
3 -- Basement
4 -- Cabinet
5 -- Storage Building

Then, I have another table, LOC_TREE_REL which ties the previous locations
to one another.
I.E.:
1 -- 2 (Says Upstairs belongs in Matrix Hall)
5 -- 3 (Says Basement belongs in Storage Building)
3 -- 4 (Says the Cabinet is in the Basement which as shown in a previous
row, is in the Storage Building.)
All of the entries in LOC_TREE_REL include a self-ownership entry. (i.e. For
Matrix Hall, their is a 1 -- 1 entry, Upstairs has a 2 -- 2 entry, etc.

I need to be able to tie these locations together in some sort of list which
demonstrates heirarchy.

I'm considering using a drop-down select menu to do it such as:

Matrix Hall
---- Upstairs
Storage Building
---- Basement
---------Cabinet

However, I need some help with the code to perform such location connections
on-the-fly. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Could you tell us what database and version you're using (SQL Server 7.0,
Access 95, FoxPro 2.0, dBase IV, Oracle 8i, etc.)?

And please follow up only in microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.db
