Norie, Follow up question. &nbsp;If I wanted to leave out the top parent node 'C:\' and only have its child nodes displayed in the treeview, How would you do that?
</div>

<div>
I'm not sure what you mean. 
 
Do you mean only display folders/files that are at least one level 'up' from the root directory? 
 
e.g. something like this. 
 
testfile2 
subfolder1 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|________testfile3 
testfile4 
subfolder1 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|________testfile5
</div>

<div>
I mean if the root directory is: C:\somefolder\someotherfolder\folder1 &nbsp;(folder1 being the root directory). That you only display the files and subfolders contained in folder1. somefile.txt subfolder1 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|_______testfile2.txt &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|_______subfolder1 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|________testfile3.doc subfolder2 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|_______testfile4.xlsx subfolder3 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|_______subfolder1 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|________testfile5.pdf &nbsp; I basically don't want the user to have to click thru a ton of directories in order to get to the root directory.

I have a collection (List(of String)) that contains file paths. &nbsp;Some of these files are in the root folder and others are in subfolders. &nbsp;I want to display the paths in a treeview while keeping the hierarchy of the file structure. &nbsp;For example: 
 
c:\testfile1 
c:\Folder1\testfile2 
c:\Folder1\subfolder1\testfile3 
c:\Folder2\testfile4 
c:\Folder3\subfolder1\testfile5 
 
Should be displayed in the treeview as: 
 
testFile1 
Folder1 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|_______testfile2 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|_______subfolder1 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|________testfile3 
Folder2 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|_______testfile4 
Folder3 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|_______subfolder1 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;|________testfile5 
 
I hope this makes sense. &nbsp;Thank you for any and all help.

How to display in a treeview Folders, Subfolder and Files from a List(of String) collection.
