Hi Charlie,
That sounds like a job for the free HierarGrid control that handles a
hierarchical dataset with relations:
"I have created a custom control called HierarGrid that derives from the
DataGrid and a custom DataGridColumn called HierarColumn.
The HierarGrid takes a DataSet that contains relations between the tables.
While iterating over the parent table it checks the related tables for child
rows and if one is found it dynamically loads a template for the child
row(s).
The template is rendered invisibly into the custom HierarColumn and when the
user clicks the plus icon, the template content is copied via JavaScript
into a newly created TableRow."
