Treeview set selectednode

[Sarah]

Hi,

Just starting out with VB.NET. Got a treeview control
which lists drives/folders. Managed to write code to
dynamically add folder and show it, but now I want to
select this folder, so the user doesn't have to do it.

Something like:
treeview1.nodes(i).select
would be good but it doesn't exist??

Any Ideas?

TIA

Sarah

Hi Sarah,

In general, if TreeNode hasn't got it, look and see if TreeView does. And
vice versa.

And in this case, have a go with:
TreeView1.SelectedNode = TreeView1.Nodes(i)

Regards,
Fergus

'TreeView1.SelectedNode = TreeView.Nodes(i)'.

And to just follow-up on Fergus and Herfrieds contributions, to save you a
bit of grief ensure that you also add

TreeView1.HideSelection = False

to your code.
