Regrettably, not free, but the Dream Tree subset of the Dream 
Controls (it can be purchased separately) is excellent, and very 
flexible. Here's an excerpt from the review I mentioned yesterday:

"Like Dream Memo, Dream Tree provides components which many 
developers would find useful. It contains several TreeView and 
ListView components, with extensions such as custom drawing, 
multiple section, a "Treesource" architecture and database browsing 
(with or without a hierarchical structure).

These tree components are widely used in the designer, for working 
with projects and several property editors, such as the menu editor.

Custom Treesources can be developed for any data that has a 
hierarchical structure. DC supplies a large number of TreeSources that 
can be readily used, such as TDCMenuSource, TDCCollectionSource 
and TDCResViewSource. Developing a custom TreeSource for specific 
datastructure is easier and less work then developing a complete new 
(derived) TTreeView.

The TDCDBTreeView component displays a database table with a tree 
structure. The table should have two fields that define that structure: a 
unique id field and a parentid field which references the id field of the 
record's parent). Set the DataSource property and the table will be 
shown in a tree-like manner. A similar result can be accomplished by 
using TDCTreeView combined with TDCDatasetSource."
