Hi, You don't say what you mean by a tree... <grin> If you mean a plant, then I don't know. If you mean the tree view of data, then I suggest using an Xtra such as the TreeView Xtra from UpdateStage. TreeView displays information in a hierarchical tree format similar to Windows Explorer or the Macintosh's Finder. You can customize the tree, by choosing the text font, icons, connector types, spacing and other properties. Since you structure the tree branches and supply the data for the node names, you have great flexibility to present a variety of different kinds of hierarchical data. Each node can report back both rollovers and mouse clicks, and automatically handles highlighting if you supply a highlight image. Any type of hierarchical data that you want the user to browse and select can be presented with TreeView Xtra.
