I have read following articles:

ACC2000: How To Fill a TreeView Control Recursively
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=209891

ACC2000: Example Using TreeView Control Drag-and-Drop Capabilities
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=209898

but I would like to know more about this control to use it under MS
Access2002/2003 -is there any book and samples to study more?

Do I have to register this control and if yes, who do I have to do it,
because the Help under F1 in the code section doesn't work at all.
Does there an activeX control exist, where I can do Gantt charts
drag-and-drop?

Can anybody specialized on that ?
 
To add a TreeView control to your form, click on the "More Controls" icon in
the Tool Box (it's a crossed wrench and hammer, with an ellipsis under it).
Scroll through the list that appears until you find Microsoft Treeview
Control. Select it, then draw it onto your form.

If you don't find it, then you may not have Microsoft Windows Common
Controls (mscomctl.ocx, which should be in C:\Windows\System32) installed on
your machine (although that would shock me)

Note, though, that the common controls are prone to versioning problems. If
you have a different version on your machine than your users have, you could
run into problems.

I'm sure there are controls capable of creating Gantt charts, but I'm not
familiar with any off the top of my head. If you find any, though, make sure
that they'll work with Access: not all ocx controls will.
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=202104 lists some of the restrictions
(while it only mentions Access 2000, it applies to all versions).
 
Thank you for your answer, I have already created a tree with nodes, even
with drag-and-drap; but am looking for special books to give more code
samples, as my help file on this control doesn't give any assistance.

For example, the whole tree is w/o background and fore/fontcolours and
nowhere I can find an explanation.
 
I'm not aware of any books that cover treeview (or other MS ActiveX
Controls) in any detail; the most comprehensive documentation I've found is
on the MSDN Site, which I guess you know about if you're familiar with the
other MS support pages.

The best example I've seen which illustrates the MW treeview control and its
capabilities is on Alex Dybenko's site. Have a look at

HTH,
