Is this an out of the box or standard asp/vb.net function, or do I need to
get a customer web control?
It's more a question of which box to get it out of...
It's a UI issue therefore you need some javascript. You could code it
yourself, or if you want to make it easier, pick one of the billion code
snippets around that will do similar things.
However, if you want to take a real step forward, I'd start to get to grips
with AJAX or one of the many good javascript frameworks out there (jQuery,
Prototype, Mootools, Scriptaculous...etc).
Personally, I'm using ASP.NET AJAX. OK, AJAX is more than just fancy
javascript effects, so I need it anyway, but the kit also includes the AJAX
Component Toolkit which includes control extenders such as the Accordion or
CollapsiblePanel

Hope this helps...
