>Hi Dragan,
>>>If I was to build another generation of framework, I wld consider

>>That's what I've done... in 1997 (VFP5!), for exactly the same reasons. I've even done one application using it, a couple of years ago, even though the rest of the (port of the) framework was not exactly finished. And it was data driven, from menu.dbf - which is the same old table which we used to drive menus back in 1989, with a few changes in the structure and a recursive bit of code which parsed it and built a treeview from it. Want the code?

Zip is in the mail, with a lengthy excursion into the history of the contents. I should write a book :).

The nice thing with this TView approach is that you really don't need anything much to add it to a framework - a table to fill it from, and a MDI (or desktop) form where it will reside. The rest goes as is. Just kick out the menu and use TV instead.
