[comp.windows.x] HELP! Building X GUI for Genealogy db

Help!!

	I am currently engaged in the development of an X-based user interface
for a genealogy database which is implemented in INGRES.

	This gui requires the building, management, and display of a number
of tree-like structures. Depending on the size of the data set(s) used in 
developing each structure, a portion only of the structure may be displayed at
any point in time, with the user able to move to any adjacent portion of the
structure in question.

	I have to believe that I am, at this point, attempting to do this 
in a sub-optimal manner ( read this as 'it's turning into a bit of a mess' :-)).

	Can anyone out there point to references which would be of aid in this
matter?

Please e-mail responses to wood@maccs.dcss.mcmaster.ca
I will summarize responses if there is any interest.

Thanks in advance,
Pete Wood.
