    Displaying Hierarchical Links

    Hey guys. I currently have a list of data simply named Circles (as in a group or organisation). Most of my circles have a parent that is also a Circle.

    I would like to find a way to visualize these relationships. The connections can go very deep so expanding a sub dataset isn't enough. They can only go 5 deep and it's not very visual, just a list.



    Is there anything I can do in access forms to help my users to visualize these connections better?

    Sounds like recursive relationship structure - table is joined to itself. A family tree is one example.

    Search web. Here is one http://www.tomjewett.com/dbdesign/db...=recursive.php
    How to attach file: http://www.accessforums.net/showthread.php?t=70301 To provide db: copy, remove confidential data, run compact & repair, zip w/Windows Compression.
