Hi all,

I'm relatively familiar with vb.net using Visual Studio, although
concentrate more on asp.net apps than windows apps...

I would like to create a small app with a "explorer" like panel which can
contain icons for a number of items in my own collection class.

I would also like to be able to right-click and have a series of options
available for each of these.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, supply me a few keywords to look
up on the net etc...

Any help would be most appreciated.

Regards

Rob
 
Hi Rob,

Use a SplitContainer Control to host your "explorer." Put a TreeView Control
in the left-hand pane, and a ListView in the right-hand pane. Then wire them
up.

Hi Kevin,

Many thanks for your prompt and informative reply.

One question - when you say "wire them up" presumably you mean to my own
objects yes?

Hi Rob,

Yes, that's exactly what I meant. You will want to associate them with your
objects, and coordinate between the TreeView and the ListView.
