Using TreeNodeCollection, TreeNodeBinding, TreeView to add nodes for GridViews

Question

I am working on improving a business process, where the existing View state calls for GridView items, but now seeks to implement in a collapsing tree. I have found the simplest method is to shadow the logic and during the aggregate stages assign tree nodes and add to the collection, preserving inheritance. What I can't seem to find, is exactly how to pull the TreeNodeCollection and bind to the TreeView, whether it is a TreeNodeBinding per node, per tree, or something else. I have seen some add text and XML, but this has to display GridView objects from VB.Net.

If it isn't obvious, I am new with VB but have a strong background in Java/PHP. Please keep suggestions pertinent to the fact that I cannot redesign things completely(large project), and it has to work around what is there already.

Thanks!

You would be more likely to get answers if your show the TreeNodeCollection code you've already written, and explain what's not working right / what you don't understand. — Josh Darnell, Dec 12 '13 at 17:06
I am sorry, I actually solved this a month later and forgot to update — Nathan Teague, Dec 23 '13 at 14:46

I actually found other controls to work better, but without expanding placeholders and doing jQuery there does not exist currently a VB.Net extension to place data bound controls in a tree view. A list View works better for the original question
