Once you've asked about this, I also decided to move 2 of my Treeviews to other VCX files (they were not located at the best place). And it worked fine.

I suppose your Treeview was, as mine, saved as a separate class on your VCX (not as a part of a bigger class such as a container or a Form, because then it'll be very easy - just cut and paste the Treeview directly).

These were the steps I've done, all at design time:

First, create a new Form. Then you add to your Form Controls Toolbar the VCX file that contains the Treeview you want to move. Next, add the Treeview to the Form, select it and choose *Save As Class* from the File menu. And that's it. Just choose there the new VCX to store the Treeview. Close the Form without saving.

One important thing is that, even after all of this, I had to open the new VCX file as a table to correct the values at the fields CLASSLOC and CLASS. Those values were wrong (my Treeviews are children of the Project Treeview Class, which is child of the Base System Treeview Class).

HTH,
