Mac Finder control for VB.NET

MG

1/24/2012 9:04:00 PM

Hello All,
I have a requirement for a new application development where I must
present some information to the user for selection via drag and drop.
VB offers the TreeView control which would work nice, however the user
does not like the Treeview control's presentation. The user wants a
control that work similar to the Mac's Finder control while in column
view.

Does anyone know of a control for VB.NET that work similar to the
Mac's Finder control?

Thanks
Mike

This is a VB "classic" newsgroup. Questions about VB.NET (including VB
2005/2008 and VB Express, which have dropped .NET from their names) are
off-topic here.

Please ask .NET questions in newsgroups with "dotnet" in their names. The
*.vb.* groups are for VB6 and earlier. If you don't see the *.dotnet.*
groups on your news server, try this one:

http://eternal-sep...

For questions specific to the VB.NET language, use this group:

microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

Please note that things like controls and data access, which have their own
subgroups in the Classic VB hierarchy, are not language-specific in .NET, so
you should look for groups like these:

microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.windowsforms.controls
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.adonet

(Note that "vb" is not present in the group name.)

You may have more luck describing the operation rather than "like App XYZ"

I think supersonic air travel could only be interesting on long
and very long routes.

Compare with fast trains.

I asked question 1. only because of the OP's family
name and the flavor of his posting, indicating
a possibly insider's enthusiasm and knowledge. :)

Sadly John McDonnell is not in my immediate family tree, if he were I would
have had a different life experience ;) Both my father and Uncle had
private pilot licenses after World War II for a while, but owning a plane is
an expensive hobby and neither of them could ever afford it. Having
acrophobia myself becoming a pilot was not something I ever wanted to do :)

Reminds me of what Bob Dole said when he was running for president and
somebody asked him if he was related to the pineapple Doles. He said
"do you really think I'd be doing all these fundraising dinners if I
was?"

That produces a basic question.

1 Would they have produced 200 seat and
500 seat SST planes by now if Concorde had
been more successful?

2 Would they have made ones that have a range
of 15000 or 20000 km?

Concord didn't look like it was vastly more
expensive than other planes but it did have
only a hundred seats.

Boeings final 2707 design was a 250-300 seat aircraft but when federal
development funds were cut they decided not to go ahead with the prototypes.
When the USA passed a federal law that supersonic flight over land was
illegal Concorde had nearly 100 aircraft orders cancelled. Only the orders
from British Airways and Air France were completed, and because there were
so few units the individual cost was huge.

In this ATL the supersonic corridor system eliminated the push for a ban on
supersonic flight over the USA, so the orders from Eastern, American,
United, Pan Am and others would not have been cancelled because of the ban.
That change plus the USA keeping the funding for the 2707 going through the
1970's would have lead to many more aircraft being built and used. That in
turn would lead people to figure out the most economical method of using the
new types of passenger aircraft for the greatest profit return.
