Child Property (Node Object)

Returns a reference to the first child of a Node object in a TreeView control.

Syntax

object.Child

The object placeholder represents an object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.

Remarks

The Child, FirstSibling, LastSibling, Previous, Parent, Next, and Root properties all return a reference to another Node object. Therefore, you can simultaneously reference and perform operations on a Node, as follows:

With TreeView1.Nodes(TreeView1.SelectedItem.Index).Child
   .Text = "New text"
   .Key = "New key"
   .SelectedImage = 3
End With

You can also set an object variable to the referenced Node, as follows:

Dim NodChild As Node
' Get a reference to the child of the selected node.
Set NodChild = TreeView1.Nodes(TreeView1.SelectedItem.Index).Child
' Use this reference to perform operations on the child Node.
With nodChild
   .Text = "New text"   '  Change the text.
   .Key = "New key"   ' Change key.
   .SelectedImage = 3   ' Change SelectedImage.
End With
