Adds a new tree node with the specified label text to the end of the current tree node collection.
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
Public Overridable Function Add ( _ text As String _ ) As TreeNode
public virtual TreeNode Add( string text )
public: virtual TreeNode^ Add( String^ text )
abstract Add : text:string -> TreeNode override Add : text:string -> TreeNode
Parameters
- text
- Type: System.String
The label text displayed by the TreeNode.
Return Value
Type: System.Windows.Forms.TreeNodeA TreeNode that represents the tree node being added to the collection.
You can also add new TreeNode objects to the collection by using the AddRange or Insert methods.
To remove a TreeNode that you previously added, use the Remove, RemoveAt, or Clear methods.
The following code example displays customer information in a TreeView control. The root tree nodes display customer names, and the child tree nodes display the order numbers assigned to each customer. In this example, 1,000 customers are displayed with 15 orders each. The repainting of the TreeView is suppressed by using the BeginUpdate and EndUpdate methods, and a wait Cursor is displayed while the TreeView creates and paints the TreeNode objects. This example requires that you have a Customer object that can hold a collection of Order objects. It also requires that you have created an instance of a TreeView control on a Form.
