I need to create an FTP site, where clients can download the information displayed in the form of folders/files. The appearance is going to be similar to the window explorer, where it shows the folders and then the files underneath. Is treeview a right choice to do it, where folder will be displayed and the files under can be expanded or collapsed. Also, I would have to create this structure on fly, as the files will be loaded based on some criteria for each client. Is there any other way to do it?
Also, I found for Treeview that Microsoft does not support it anymore- what exactly that means?
Thanks for the help

What it means is that the treeview control was unofficially released in the 1.0 version along with some other controls. That is, it was available, but it wasn't a part of Visual Studio.
Microsoft never really supported it. That doesn't mean you can't use it, though, you just have to make sure that you have the correct .Net Framework version on the machine that is running it.
There is also supposed to be a Treeview control released in Whidbey, so depending on your urgency, you might want to wait for it...

So, if I am using VS.NET, will I be able to use it?

You can use it if you download the controls.
Go here:
http://www.asp.net/IEWebControls/Download.aspx?tabindex=0&tabid=1
You can check to see if you have the correct .Net version (previously as far as I know this was not supported in 1.1, but they make no mention of it on this site) and you can download the source code for the controls.
