TreeView Node: Formatting?

P

(PeteCresswell)

Is there any in-line formatting syntax that can be used to vary
the format of a TreeView.Node.Text - so that some of the
text is bold and some regular within the same node?

Right now, I'm using a subform to show a list of bond trades:
"Buys" "Sells" and "Maturations".

viz: http://tinyurl.com/25hkn4
(trades are circled in red... note bolding of ParAmount)

The joker in the deck is that one "Sell" might link to many Buys.
The sale might be 100 mil and sell 10 mil from one buy, 50 mil of
another, and so-forth. Each component of that sale has it's own
par amount, profit, yield, and so-forth.

I could just show all the sale components as if they were
multiple sales, but what I'd prefer to do (and what the client
wants....) is to show a single parent sale and then have a little
"Plus" sign that lets the user expand it's children for more
detail.

Actually, if I could pull off the formatting, a sub-datasheet
would fit the bill exactly.

My fallback position would be to open a floater containing the
sale components if/when somebody doubleclicks on the sale.

Assuming you are using the standard built-in treeview: no, it does not
support that. You'd want to look at a 3rd party control if you REALLY
need this.

Go for the subdatasheet. It's a pretty nice solution for the more
sophisticated user.

Impressive little app you're building there...

Do you think there's hope for formatting in a subdatasheet?

I need color and bold.
