Good evening to you all. Im sorry if this message gets too long, eheh , but
its as short as i can get it.
Well, I have a slight problem printing a product tree that is organized as
follows. Well, there is a product name field, a product number, and product
origin.

ORIGIN NUMBER NAME
000 001 BUILDING
001 002 1ST FLOOR
001 003 2ND FLOOR
001 004 3RD FLOOR
002 005 APARTMENT
005 006 KITCHEN
005 007 RESTROOM
005 008 KITCHEN TABLE
004 005 APARTMENT

and so on. I didnt write the product names, because i dont know how to
translate them from portuguese. :)))
Well, the tree works as follows, the building contains the floors that
contain the apartments and so on, but an important detail is this last row I
added, because if I have referenced the apartment 005 and what it contains,
if it appears as a link in any other part of the table linked to another
floor, it still contains the same rooms. Like a product that appears in many
parts of a product tree and doesnt need to be described again. Its easy to
structure this in a tree view, by adding branches recursively. But when I
want to print this, I cant be adding the branches recursively to the form (
andI need to be printing the rows, not the treeview, because the rows have
lots of other information). My problem is that the details section of a
report print real rows, and if apartment 005 shows in any other part of the
tree, its rows have already been printed. And anyway, if I want to take this
info to a report, there is no order in which i could arrange the rows to be
printed neatly as a tree, because each time i want to see the table i have to
assemble it again.
Well, again, Im sorry if the message got toooo long, but I hope to hear from
you!!!
Thanks 1!!!!

I'm not sure if I totally understand
but it sounds like your needs may be met
if you had a TreeView that supported multiple columns
and also had direct support for printing

If I am correct, take a look at TList at

Also if TList looks good to you feel free to drop me
