TreeView in GridView

Hi, I know there must be a way to do this, and perhaps someone has already done it. I googled like crazy but found nothing at all. Anyway, what I want to do is have a TreeView in the first column of a GridView using WPF, which can expand and collapse and that will show/hide the row it belongs to, pretty much something like this (the demo is for ASP.NET, I want to be able to do the same in WPF):

DevExpress demo

In our company we bought Infragistics controls, but it doesn't have a built in solution, we're trying to avoid spending a lot of time coding this solution.

Thank you!

From stackoverflow
  • Infragistics support similar scenario, see their overview - for WinTree control.

    They can also do this for grids (see under Hierarchical display).

    Carlo : Thanks for the suggestion, but that's for Windows Forms, I'm using WPF.
    MichaƂ Chaniewski : ouch, didn't notice that - the only place you say it, is tags...
    Carlo : You're right I should've specified in the question. Thanks.
  • Perhaps you're not using the right search terms... IMO, what you're actually looking for is not a GridView with a TreeView inside it, but rather a TreeView with columns.

    Here are a some samples of TreeViews with columns (often called TreeList or TreeListView) :

    Carlo : That sounds about right, I think the second link will work for me. I will test it during the course of the day and let you know if it worked. Thanks.
    Carlo : It worked, Thanks!
