>If you right click on the tree in the designer, & select Tree Control properties. Then launch Help from the tree property page, you'll get the help for the tree. Most useful, I think are the parent, child & sibling properties which allow you to "dig" through the tree items.

>As for your tree not showing...You mean at run time? What version of VFP are using? It may have something to do with it being on a page frame. ActiveX controls like to be on top of everything else. You may want to repost your question about the disappearing tree so that someone else may respond.
