That looks like it would make a really cool custom component, synchronizing a tree on the left with a grid on the right.
It will be hard in just a datagrid because I don't think the cells can be different widths on different lines. Your indentations couldn't overlap.

What's the best way to show and hide different portions of a datagrid that displays hierarchical arrangements? The effect of the display is to show and hide different parts of a hierarchy - a tree with rows attached, for lack of a better way of saying it. Let's say the display is something like this: Category 1 Item 1 Item 2 ------ Item n Category 2 Subcategory 1 Item 1 Item 2 ...... Item n Subcategory 2 Item 1 Item 2 ...... Item n Category 3 Item 1 Item 2 ...... Item n ...... Category n What's the best way to approach showing and hiding the category and subcategory names and the items within them? Should I tie a datagrid to a tree - or can all this be accomplished within a datagrid? Or is there another approach? - Tom Yahoo! Groups Links
