    Which Control to use?

    I'm making a program that is similar to win explorer. I'm making a media browser program. What control do I need to use to get the treeview effect? Is the treeview control what I need? What I'm actually trying to do is do something like KaZaA's "MY KaZaA" thing. I want treeview type thing, but the folders in the treeview in my program will not be folders that are on the HD. I hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Well, you need the TreeView control!

    To get it, select Components from the Project menu. Then check the box next to Microsoft Windows Common Controls 5.0 or 6.0.

    Close the dialog box. The TreeView will be in the Toolbox.

    If you want to know how to use it, there are plenty of tutorials around.

    TreeView is the control you need. It doesn't matter the folders or whatever. You can add whatever you want into a TreeView... let's say any text and any image.
