Microsof Access 2000
I want to create a series of linked Forms, Sub-forms and Sub-Sub-Forms etc
that look and work just like the structure used by the folders list on the left hand side of Windows Explorer. I need a structure with only 2 or 3 levels, the visible ?icons need to list a brief description of the item, and I need to be able to add new items and edit or delete items - probably with buttons. Different levels in the structure will need to have a different set of controls and be drawn from different tables, so the edit screens will need to be different. I have tried to use a form with a sub-form and a second sub (sub) form but it just doesn't look right. Does anybody have any ideas how to achieve this?

Sounds like you need to play with the TreeView Control.
