looking for tree/outline control that allows in-place editing AND will expand as I type

Rex
Hi - I am new to VB.Net/2005, but not VB. I am trying to find an
outline or tree - type control for VB.Net/2005 that provides the
ability for the User to TYPE in one of the NODES of the outline... AND
while typing, that node will visually expand to 2/3/4/etc lines if the
User has reached the end of the line. Ideally, I would also like the
User to be italicize or colorize any word within what they are typing
also. Thanks much! Rex

Hello Rex,

The RichTextBox is the closest thing I can think of. It supports bulleted
outline mode as well as text formatting.

Thanks, Boo... Do you know if there is a way to make that RichTextBox
part of an outline (to get the effect I describe below)? What I'm
trying to create is a *real* outlining-style word processor/software.
(Or if you or anyone else has any other ideas on how to accomplish
this...?)

Hello Rex,

I've accomplished this effect using HTML + Javascript. Embed a WebBrowser
control in your form.

This link: ( http://www.akmhs.com/tripplanner/index.cfm ) has an example
that will get you started. Do an itenerary search till you get results..
then the results can be expanded/collapsed.

Problem with mapping a directory tree to a tree control: It takes a while to recurse subdirs and map them to nodes. This is solved in some books I've seen (MacDonald, Albahari) by reading the subdir only when its node on the tree control is opened. Has anyone pre-packaged this functionality into a control?
