I am just wondering if I can use the tree control on a gadfly flat table as follows: table fields: parent child author title records could be parent child author title nil Journal_one nil Journal_two nil Journal_three Journal_one J1_98 Journal_one J1_99 Journal_one J1_97 Journal_two J2_98 J1_98 J1Jan98 J1_98 J1Feb98 J1_98 J1Mar98 J1Jan98 Author1 title1 J1Jan98 Author2 title2 J1Jan98 Author3 title3 I can get the tree control to look at 1 level and then I can't get it to go deeper than that without all levels expanding or other weirdness. ------- Regards, Graham Chiu gchiu<at>compkarori.co.nz http://www.compkarori.com/dynamo - The Homebuilt Dynamo http://www.compkarori.com/dbase - The dBase bulletin
