Recursive Relationships: Our Gang Demo
Perhaps you have needed to model a recursive relationships such as (1) an organization chart, (2) a family tree (3) a hierarchical bill of manufacture or assembly or (4) a hierarchy of tasks and sub-t...

Awesome Dan. You are the ultimate!

The script could be adopted to generate those diagrams but they were manually created. By virtue of traversing the relationship tree and retrieving all the relevant fields you can perform arbitrary actions for each node visited. By actions I mean arbitrary JavaScript actions not native QuickBase actions. One way to generate a diagram would be to render each node into a segment of GraphViz code. See this post:

GraphViz Fields
