Using TreeView-Control in UserForm (XP)

[Porley]

Hello everybody!

I am creating a userform, that contains a TreeView-Control. It works pretty well. I found out, that it should be possible to assign an icon/picture to the nodes in dependence of the node condition (expanded/collapsed). Unfortunately I did not manage to relate a node to a picture. Does someone have experience with this? Any help will be appreciated. maybe someone out there knows a good recource in the internet on this topic?

You must also add an ImageList control to your userform and add the images you need to this control. To do so, click in the Custom property of the ImageList control and click the ... button.
Add a picture for collapsed nodes and a picture for expanded nodes. You can add several types, if you like.
Each image will have a unique index (1, 2, 3, ...).
Next, select the TreeView control, click in the Custom property and click the ... button.
Set the ImageList property to the name of the ImageList control.
The Add method of the Nodes property of the TreeView has optional arguments Image (for collapsed) and SelectedImage (for expanded). You can specify the index of a picture in the ImageList control. For example, if you have added two pictures, they will have index 1 and 2. Code would look like this:

Set nod2 = Me.tvwTree.Nodes.Add(Relative:=nod1, Relationship:=tvwChild, _
Key:="N2", Text:="Porley", Image:=1, SelectedImage:=2)

There is a lot of information about these controls on MSDB, but unfortunately many of the pages fail to load at the moment. Try TreeView and ImageList.

Hans, thanks again! I really wonder where you have all the knowledge from ;-) At first I could not manage since I could not select the imagelist in the TreeView-Properties. But then I tried via code and it worked.
Thanks again. Now I will try to work with it.

You're correct, the ImageList property in the Custom properties doesn't work correctly on a UserForm (it does work in VB6, and also in Access), so you have to assign the property in code.
