I'm sorry, I don't think I'm making myself clear. The issue is not
with setting up a hierarchy nor with traversing the hierarchy. The
issue is with data entry.

I want to enter the parent of my object from a pull-down list so that
I don't accidentally select the wrong parent (by having to enter a
meaningless number, oid, that corresponds to the parent object's
record number). Instead, I want to enter the parent's name.

However, if the object doesn't have a parent (root object), then the
oid should be NULL or 0.

How do I do this with validators?
