I thought the VIEW may have been an issue. The OCX controls are really cool. One of contributors recently learned that Version 5 of the OCX are system controls, therefore XP themed.

It's good to see a newbie attack with the OCX!. It took me over a year to even start with them. My early forays were visual and had a lot of code. Now they are PRG classes and a lot less code.

ALlow me to suggest that [when you have time], try to evaluate the "key" feature of nodes. The Index method is a an easy way to add, but it changes as nodes are removed or added or sorted. I used to loop through the nodes to find some something, and then I learned, I could determine if a node existed by testing for it's key:
IF TYPE('Myform.MyListView.ListItems(lcProspectKey).key')==[C]
lets us know immediately if the node is in the list (works for tree view to!). The key can also be used to point back to (SEEK/SELECT) a DBF or SQL record!

Practice as much as you can with the OCX. Using them will enhance your projects and understanding of OOP.
