Data Table problem

Hi...
 
        I have to display parent and child object details in tree based Table structure in PDF..
 
IE
 
      Name                                             Amount             Total
      Grand Parent object Name 1        G.Amount         G.Total_G__c
      Parent Name1                               P.Amount         P.Total_Parent__c
      Child 1                                           C.Amount         C.Date_Child__c 
      Child 2                                           C.Amount         C.Date_Child__c 
      Child 3                                           C.Amount         C.Date_Child__c 
      Grand Parent object Name 2        G.Amount         G.Total_G__c
      Parent Name  2                             P.Amount         P.Total_Parent__c
      Child 4                                           C.Amount         C.Date_Child__c 
      Child 5                                           C.Amount         C.Date_Child__c 
      Child 6                                           C.Amount         C.Date_Child__c 
      Grand Parent object Name 3        G.Amount         G.Total_G__c
      Parent Name 3                              P.Amount         P.Total_Parent__c
      Child 7                                           C.Amount         C.Date_Child__c 
      Parent Name 4                              P.Amount         P.Total_Parent__c
      Child 8                                           C.Amount         C.Date_Child__c 
      Child 9                                           C.Amount         C.Date_Child__c 
     
 
Here my relation is
 
Child has Parent lookup.. Parent has GrandParent Lookup
 
Grand Parent Fields Amount & Total
Parent Fields Amount & Date
Child  Fields Amount & Date
 
Above are sample fields.. My requirement is like that...
 
How to achieve my requirement..
 
I think Datatable and repeat method will help me...
 
Any one has a sample code,  that will help more...
 
I dont know how to achive this....

I had the exact same problem recently and would be interested to see an elegant solution!
I had considered using a Map to populate my values in the controller but afaik, this can't be utilized in
a VF page.

I can't be sure if this will work, but have you tried nested components? Something along the lines of a parent page with the Grandparent object controller, inside a repeat or data table you have a component which uses a variable to pass the grandparent object currently being iterated, then the component has its own internal component that does the same.

There was another discussion about this in a different thread. I posted an example using a custom wrapper class combined with the repeat tag that should help.
Look for the link here: http://community.salesforce.com/sforce/board/message?board.id=Visualforce&thread.id=7930
