What else are you hoping for ? There's no tree control build into .NET, so a third party control is really your only option.

Hi sathish, You mean to say onMouseover function can help me ? I am very new to this technology, can you help me more on this. appreciate your concerns. My work around is similar to the in following link > AutoComplete_From_Database < when results are populated in the list. Upon mouse over on any name i need to display details. Thanks & regards, Krishnamenon

If you are following the advice that I posted and the approach that Robbe uses in his tutorial, then I don't see anything in your description that would indicate a design issue. At this point, without looking at some of the code, I don't think that we will be able to help you further. I'd suggest that we start by looking at the relevant snipits where you recreate the controls on postback / Save button click. --Jesse "... the internet's just a big porn library with some useful articles stuck in." - Rob Rodi

Sounds like you are taking very complex project... I just know that it must be way easier to develop that what you want as Windows application than ASP.NET + AJAX (this is answer to 3). In any case, good starting point would be to see how existing editors work - I found this article && you can take a look at SharpDevelop which is open source IDE for .NET (source code on this link). If you have more questions - shoot :)

hmm not exactly webparts! because at the same time we need to handle control resizing as well. What if we need to place many controls over the webparts. Can it handle ?

Were the reports created in CR9? Was the code written against CR9? If the anwer to EITHER of these questions is yes, then of course it won't work. The classes that your stuff depends on don't exist any more (they're version dependant). Since you uninstalled 9, you also uninstalled everything your code is looking for.
