Friday, September 4, 2009
Lets say you have a treeview and you want a user to be able to right-click a node and then be able to either delete it, copy it, or view details about it. How do you trap the right-click event? How do you show a context menu? And how do you know what node was clicked?

March 13, 2008 I see lots of questions on the web asking "How do I get started with treeviews- is there a tutorial?". My Treeview Project is just that- a tutorial. Seasoned VBA developers may find it goes a little slow, but be patient! It's aimed at folk for whom the Microsoft online references aren't enough. It goes step-by-step, starting with a simple "Hello World" treeview. Here's the current table of contents....

2008-03-29T07:17:00.002-04:00

March 29, 2008 In episode 4 we'll take the treeview we designed in episode 3 and add buttons for "collapse all" and "expand all". This will let us get started working with the nodes in a treeview.

In previous episodes I told you to make sure you'd built the treeview from the last episode so we could add to it. This time you can download the completed treeview including this episode.

March 12, 2008 In Episode 1: The Hello World! Treeview we built the simplest of treeviews, just to introduce some of the concepts. In Episode 2: Northwind Categories and Products we created a treeview that displayed products in categories based on data from the Northwind sample database.

In this episode we'll take the treeview from epsiode 2 and add some tweaks that affect how it looks. This will let us look at a number of useful techniques and concepts.
