Outlook Folder pick tree

[Michael Tissington]

I have an MFC Dialog application and I need to present to the user a pick
list similar to the one that appears in Outlook 2007 on the left pane. I'd
like the addation of check boxes.

Any ideas how best to do this please ?

Moreover, Ultimate Toolbox GUI classes are now free, and you may find
something useful there, too:

It should be noted that this article is based on C# managed code.
However, if you use Visual Studio 2005 or 2008, you could still use it from
C++ and MFC, thanks to C++/CLI extensions to C++.
(I don't know if on CodeProject there is a similar implementation writtne in
native C++/MFC. You may try to find that.)

The second link I posted is instead pure native C++.

Thanks - I'm actually looking for somthing like the Folder view in the
navigation bar and not the navigation bar itself.
