Remarks

Use the Add method to append the specified TreeNode object to the end of the TreeNodeCollection.

Note

The TreeNodeCollection allows you to add null references (Nothing in Visual Basic), as well as duplicate TreeNode objects.

As an alternative, you can insert a TreeNode object in the TreeNodeCollection at a specific index by using the AddAt method.
