It works, but you have to save the Recno() before recursing, and GO back to it after that, so your Scan-EndScan loop continues from the same record. I do it often, and it works nice ever since 2.0.

I've built a treeview from a table (using exactly the recursion with scan-endscan), but haven't benchmarked it, and never had more than 50 nodes, so I can't know the speed issues.
