Thanks for your help Nick. I'm able to associate a ImageList Control to the TreeView's ImageList property now.

By thw way, would you mind explain further why we need to put the word "Object" in order to reference to an OLE object's property and methods ? Why some of the ActiveX controls doesn't need the word "object" in order to access the object's property or methods. Fox example, MsComm32.ocx, we can directly assign the communication setting as THISFORM.oleMyComm.setting="9600,N,8,1", or reading from the COM port by using the object's input method as "lcChar=THISFORM.OleMyComm.Input".

Thanks for your help. Have a nice day.
