Knowledge base article #182231 discusses a problem with the TreeView nodes count property limited to 32767: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/182231 The article is dated and specifically talks about this being a VB issue, however I'm seeing similar problems i.e. very poor performance, wacky v. scrollbar, when using the windows tree common control with more than 64K items from a win 32 application. - Can anyone confirm that this indeed is a problem with the underlying tree ctrl, not just a problem with its VB ActiveX wrapper? - Is there a known workaround or fix for this? I.e. can the win32 tree ctrl be used with say 100,000 or more items? Thanks in advance, -- sundance
