Frank --
As I read your question you are interested in expanding hierarchies. See
the article at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/acdata/ac_8_qd_14_5yk3.asp
(those aren't spaces; they're underscores) to see if this provides a
template.
There is another, similar, example that indents data for an organization's
employee list starting on Page 699 of Kalen Delaney's "Inside Microsoft SQL
Server 7.0" amd I presume in her next edition.
I hope this helps.
