Thanks, that looks like a good bet for all the "static" references.

I do, however, have one rather ugly kludge involving a timer event that cycles 
through the treeview checking the status of things. This has a 
semi-persistent iterator that gets iterated (!) every half second or so. It 
doesn't look like TreeRowReference will do that, so I probably still need to 
reset that one to Items->children().begin() whenever a reordering occurs. Is 
there an event I can hook up to?

Thanks,
Rob
