Can I get someone's opinion on the below please. I’m getting an
'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' on the below
TreeView code. Everything appears to work fine until I include the
Cursor content. Thanks in advance!

A friend pointed out that my problem existed on:

((TreeNode)ht[dr["Parent"].ToString()]).ChildNodes.Add(mi);

You want to add the current node to its parent.
The problem is, the hashtable key is the SORID, not the index of the
item – it is expecting “1000000” as a parent, but instead gets “1”.
Since there is no hashtable record with index “1”, you are trying to
add a child node to an entry that doesn’t exist.

In my example below I need to maintain the SORID as my index. So the
solution was to modify my Stored Procedure so that my Parent value
referenced the SORID value instead of the ID. Works fine now.
