The SAP Table Tree control is an R/3-aware active OLE control that simplifies the handling of hierarchical data. Using OLE Automation technology, the SAP Table Tree control can work either as a standalone control or in combination with other SAP controls like the SAP Table Factory.

The Table Tree control can be used independently of any R/3 System. In fact, the control can run in any active control container as an advanced active OLE control. However, to get full R/3-aware functionality with the Table Tree control, you must use it together with the SAP Table Factory control. Combining both controls lets you handle hierarchical R/3 data easily and quickly.
