I would like to know the best way to load a Treeview in VB.NET 2005 with the
directories and files located in a path on the hard drive. I would also like
to know the best way to refresh this view when a file was added or deleted
from the file system as well.

You want to look up FileSystemWatcher to react to changes.
If you aren't familiar with the System.IO namespace for iterating
folders and files, check here:

I've mapped the database to .NET class properties and methods to
implement an multi-layered object oriented environment for your
data access layer. Thus, you should rarely ever have to type the words
SqlCommand, SqlDataAdapter, or SqlConnection again.
