Window explorer uses a treeview and a listview.

In this resource kit is a sample to make a simple one, I thought that the
thmpnails are not yet in.

VB.net Resource kit
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/vbrkit/default.aspx

And if you have problems installing the resource kit
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/vbr...q/#installvdir

I hope this helps?

You are right it does not show how to do this with thumbnails.
Do you know of an example that can show me how to achive an
explorer style thumbnail view?

Thanks Again

I have 2 forms, Form1.vb and Form2.vb. In Solution Explorer, Form2.vb no longer shows a Form icon nor do I have the option to open Form2.vb in the main explorer window where usually I have the design view options for any forms. I don't get it. Why can I not get back to design view for Form2?? Thanks, Ryan
