    Yes. It is possible.
    You'll need a TreeView and a ListView.
    Search the forums or planetsourcecode.com for code.

    I don't realy recommend planetsourcecode if you are a beginner. PSC is the easiest way to find the code you want, but also it is the easiest way to destroy your programming skills.

    I fully agree, the majority of the samples there are badly coded (or need drastic improvements to be useful)... which is why I recommend our sister-site www.FreeVBCode.com instead - it has lots of good code, but it is moderated so you don't tend to get much bad code at all.
