Ref. to treeview control

[wolfofthenorth]

I think TreeView canbe found under System.Windows.Forms.Treeview

Try something like this...

Imports System.Windows.Forms
Public Function MyTreeFunction(ByVal tree As TreeView)

Or you can fully qualify it.
Public Function MyTreeFunction(ByVal tree As System.Windows.Forms.TreeView)

Hope this helps.

Unfortunately this does not work in a module as you can't reference System.Windows.forms in a module.

change the to ByRef tree As System.Windows.Forms.Treeview

.net upgrade wizard sux!!

Unfortunately I can't get a reference to the Windows.Forms namespace in a module.

So you cannot use...

Public Function MyFunction( byref tree as Window.Forms.Form.Treeview)


I would preferred to use a class but I seem to have the same problem. The class would povide high level functions to add nodes to trees and various other useful functions relating to treeviews.

i said
System.Windows.Forms.Treeview


Windows.forms.Form.Treeview is incorrect.

Sorry, Sorry , Sorry!!! but thanks.

The problem was that I am using a class library project and it does not automatically add the ref: Window.Forms.Form. After I added the reference manually it was possible to declare the function.

Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.

I didn't have a problem getting to that namspace in a module. If you still can't get to it, maybe you don't have a reference you need. Although, I think it would be a sad day when the System namespace is unavailable.

Oops. I see you have already resolved the problem. Disregard last transmittion.
