I'm trying to populate the nodes of a treeview in
an Access 2000 form. However, when I refer to the
control in VBA (i.e. Me.ActiveXCtl1.) the NODE property
doesn't appear. I can do this in VB6 but why doesn't
it appear in VBA?

Hi

There is a problem with the interaction between Access and the Treeview control.

It does work, and all the properties, methods, etc. are available - but unfortunately the Intellisense bit doesn't work and you have to type it by hand.

Just like the bad old days...

Hi.
Just a dumb question.
How do you enter the nodes by hand?

Thanks
Robert

I think Brian is using the term "nodes" to mean Properties, Methods and Events.

So, while Intellisense will take over when you type

docmd.

in your code and show you all of the properties, methods and events available for DoCmd, when you're working with a Treeview control, you have to know what to type after the dot.

Tip: An easy way to find out what properties, methods and events are exposed is to open the "Object Browser" in the VB editor.

BTW, when I say "exposed" I'm referring to the fact that, by default, the object browser doesn't display "hidden members". To display hidden members, right click in the list of properties, methods and events and select "Show Hidden Members". As if you didn't have enough classes, properties, methods and events to figure out how to use!!! Sheeze!

Intellisense always works if you declare the tree and nodes first then set the objects.

Dim objTVW As TreeView, objNode As Node

Set objTVW = Me!TreeviewNameHere.Object

Set objNode = objTVW.Nodes.Add([Relative], [Relationship], [Key], Text, [Image], [Selectedimage])
Node syntax shows [bracketed] properties as optional.

Forgot to mention don't forget to destroy all objects at the end.

Set objNode = Nothing
Set objTVW = Nothing

Can you run events off of the children nodes (i.e double-click event)in the tree control.
