how to set hierarchy from list instead of using select and link tool?

[object24]

Is there a way to create parent child relationships in a list type of view instead of having to link the physical options in the viewport? Sometimes I have objects that are on top of each other or hard to get too and it would be much easier if there is a way like in Maya where you can just drag an object in a list view on top of another to create the relationship. Can max do something like that? I checked the help but couldnt find anything.

Thanks in advance!

with the link button active you can press h and select the object you wish to link to from that list.
Hope that helps
