Here are some useful tips for you:
- TreeView control expects a heirarchical data structure, so we cant bind the DataTable to menu directly.
- Use data table Select where ParentID = ID
- Please use a recursive method to create child items relevent to current menu item ID
Here is an working example that you may use to transfer your ralational data structure (TABLE) to hierarchical data structure (TREE) using the relationship between ParentID and ID
