i can see how taht would work ajnd i'll concider it, but i really would like pure multiselect.

I do not believe the TreeView control supports the MultiSelect property. I might suggest looking at ameba's code and possible creating your own 'custom' TreeView control that would support MultiSelect.

sounds difficlut...

If you are interested in custom controls here is a good site: http://www.vbaccelerator.com/. Do a search on TreeView. You will get a cool TreeView control with all of the code to boot! I have modified this control and added some functionality that I needed, you could do the same thing. If you do remember to rename the control!!!

i guess i'll leave this question up to see if i find a real way to multi select.

If you don't need collapsing/expanding of nodes, i.e. if all nodes are always open, you can have UI you want - it's called indented listview.

sorry... they need to colapse

sorry, this is not supported by control.

I ended up just playing with the back color property of the nodes but i started with check boxes and they worked for a time... now i just faked multi select... thankyou
