Can you rephrase your question more clearly? I was able to follow the question halfway, then got lost. :(

I sure you can help me,
and I know that my english hard to understand

now I just in the begining.

I want to built forum like tree

father1
son 1
grandson
son 2
grandson
grandson

I take all the father message
and insert into grid view
here the exapmle http://212.199.43.15/forum/showmessage.aspx

now the hard part is to take the sons and the greandsons etc'
here I need a recursive function.

I try write this:

Code:

---

}
    protected string ShowSun(string mid)
    {
        string h = "";
        string strSQL;
        strSQL = "select * from forum where fID = " + mid;
        OleDbConnection cn = new OleDbConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["conn"].ToString());
        cn.Open();
        OleDbDataReader reader;
        cmd.Connection = cn;
        cmd.CommandText = strSQL;
        reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
        while (reader.Read())
        {
            h += "<BR>" + reader["subject"].ToString();
            h += "ShowSun(" + reader["mid"].ToString() + ")";
            ShowSun(reader["mid"].ToString());
        }
      return h;
   
    }

---

and in the grid view I call the function:

Code:

---

<%# ShowSun(Eval("mID").ToString())%>

---

but this function doesnt work, it take just the sons and not the grandsons.

if you have an idea how to fix it, or another way to do it,
it will help me so much

thanks!

ok thanks I got it:

protected string ShowSun(string mid)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
recurcive(mid, ref sb,0);
return sb.ToString();
}
protected void recurcive(string mid, ref StringBuilder sb, int t)
{
++t;
DataRow[] selectedRows = ds.Tables["sID"].Select(string.Format("fID={0}", mid));

for (int i = 0; i <= selectedRows.GetUpperBound(0); ++i)
{
sb.Append("<BR />");
sb.Append(selectedRows[i]["subject"].ToString());
sb.Append(t.ToString());
recurcive(selectedRows[i]["mid"].ToString(), ref sb,t);
}
}

thanks!

Glad you got it. *Sigh of Relief*
