Outlook Tasks view... Similar control in VB6? 1

[msc0tt]

I am designing a VB6 app, and the type of control that would be perfect is the Tasks view from Outlook 2000. It's kind of like a grid with several rows/columns. The sort order can be changed to any of the columns. Here's the part I need: Multiple rows can be Grouped By some criteria. Then these group sections can be collaped/expanded with the mini +/- buttons at the head of the group. Sweet.
Can the flexgrid be programmed to act like this? Is there a control elsewhere that does the job?
-with thanks

Hi,
Use ListView in the report style!!
Open this link and search with "ListView" you will have hundreds of examples.

Thanks for the tip Zameer, but after some ListView searching, I can't find an example that groups rows for the purpose of expanding/collapsing. Here's a screenshot from my Outlook of the type of window I need.

You will want to use a flexgrid for this. Microsoft has an example at msdn of how to do what you wish.
