Hi,

I have 2 questions about the navigationstructure which can be build with the
tables Cat and Area.

Question 1:
For a large shop I want to build a navigationstructure bar with 4 levels,
for example:

 Division Medical
 Division Electronics
* Division Laboratory
	- diagnostics
	- software
	* equipment
		- analytical equipment
		- standard equipment
		* weighing/balances equipment
				* Precision balances
				* Portable balances
				* Comparator balances
				* Micro-balances
					---- all products in the group Micro-balances ---

Is the above mentioned structure possible in Interchange? If so, how can I
achieve it with the tables Area, Cat and/or Product ?

Question 2:
In the navigationstucture of the Foundationstore you get a complete list of
groups and subgroups:
 Ladders (groups)
    Brushes (subgroups)
    Ladders
    Step Stools

Hand Tools
    Brushes
    Hammers
    Hand Planes
    Hand Saws

I have so many groups and subgroups that I only want to see the groups and
hyperlink them to the subgroups (so you will see a list of subgroups only
when you click on the group).

Can anybody answer my questions and explain me how to do this in InterChange
?
