I made some tests, and it works like I supposed in the first e-mail:

    * with first userfunc (in the special section) I fill the first level
    * with the following userfunc (the ones associated with levels of
      TMENU) I can fill the other levels, depending on expAll and other
      section settings.

This let avoiding useless DB lookups on trees which are not selected.

Anyway, my problem was due to not working application API, which made 
wrong calls to DB. I'm going to rewrite that part.

Thanks,

Tonino
