Is there a native access version of the treeview?

[sk]

I have a need to use the treeview control in a database I'm working on but I
do NOT want to deal with the activex registration issues if I can get around
it. Is there any control native to access that can be made to act the same?
I can go with 2 or 3 listboxes but that is just not as slick looking in a
finished application and it uses up too much space on the form.

I have used the treeview with nested recordsets in the past but that was on
a single user app so there was not a big issue in getting the control loaded.
The app I'm working on now will be used by 20+ people so I want to stay away
from the registration issues if I can.

forgot to add I'm using 2007.

No.
Create a setup program, which will install all required components.

The Wise installer is generally considered the best.

Some time ago, I did a demo using the TreeView. I did not have to load
anything "special", but do note that the sample includes two References that
are not "basic": Microsoft Office SP Web Components and Microsoft Windows
Common Controls v 6. As I often use the Windows Common Controls for file
selection, I suspect the TreeView is in the Microsoft Office XP Web
Components. If all your users have full Microsoft Office Pro installed, I
think there's a probability that they'll already have the Web Components
installed and you won't face ActiveX registration issues. (Caveat: But, that
may not be the case with all versions of Office.)

Former MVP (now Microsoft employee on the Access team) Jeff Conrad has
several useful links about TreeView at

Oops, finger-fumble. The first reference should be

Microsoft Office XP Web Components
