Have you seen MS Access tree view?
Edit: (Relationship)
It exists even 2003 version. Would you suggest MS to throw it away?

Actually, I have not seen Access at all Wink

In fact, I have not used MS-Office for more than year. Not even installed it on my new computers. OpenOffice works fine for me.

Classical MDI is not that hard to implement in U++, it is just quite a lot of code to write (my estimate is 500-1000 lines). The most dificult part is actually to draw captions and borders of windows Wink

As I see the situation now, in many essential areas (no MDI, no Drag&Drop interface, no normal table Ctrl, no normal easy-to-use text Ctrl,no Calendar Ctrl etc. etc.) Ultimate++ is just ultimate collection of buttons! And it is far away from other toolkits... And, if someone wants full set of features which other toolkits have, then he/she has to spend many months on DIY!
No surprise then, that Ultimate's popularity is so low...
And my last year's estimates (that Ultimate++ would catch other toolkits this summer) were too much optimistic... Two more years? Then, maybe...
