Treeview - looping through nodes

Hi,

I am simply trying to loop through the nodes of my treeview control with following code:

With TaskItemsForm.trvTasks
        For Each n In trvTasks
            Debug.Print "Key :  ", .Nodes.Item.Key, "Text :   ", .Nodes.Item.Text
        Next n
     End With

Open in new window

but I am getting the error :
Compile error - argument not optional - and it highlights the ".Items" section of .Nodes.Item.Key

Any help on guiding me through this would be appreciated.

Best regards,

Craig

Thanks guys. I am still a relative novice in coding - the different uses of methods / properties etc still gets me befuddled. You have both given me a way to cycle through the treeview and they both work really well with my code.

Hi Martin,

I am getting an error when trying to call your procedure- as I am hopeless with VBA in Excel I can't track down what the reason for it is.

When I call the procedure as below, I get the error "Type Mismatch"...

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
    With Me
        'Label the userform
        .Caption = "Menu Tasks Comment Form"
        ' Label the buttons
        .CommandButton1.Caption = "Close"
        .CommandButton2.Caption = "Add Comment"
        .CommandButton3.Caption = "View Comments"
        .Frame1.Caption = "Comments"
        'Null out the label
        .Label1 = vbNullString
        .TextBox1 = vbNullString
        'Label the treeview
        .TreeView1.LineStyle = tvwRootLines
        'Sort the treeview
        .TreeView1.Sorted = True
    End With
   'Populate the Treeview
    TreeView_Populate True ' populate the treeview control
    WalkTree Me.TreeView1.Nodes(1)
End Sub

Open in new window

Could you perhaps point me in the right direction as to what I am doing wrong ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi again,

I found that I needed to change the procedure to declare the parentnode as an object, not as a node - it would appear that this is a version of treeview issue.

Private Sub WalkTree(ByVal ParentNode As Object) ' previously declared as node
    
    Do Until ParentNode Is Nothing
        Debug.Print ParentNode.Text, , ParentNode.Index, , ParentNode.Key
        WalkTree ParentNode.Child
        Set ParentNode = ParentNode.Next
    Loop

End Sub

Open in new window

Thanks again !!

I'm glad you were able to fix it. Not that I'm complaining but what happened between the time you said my code worked really well and the type mismatch error?

Just out of curiosity, does the following work for you?

Private Sub WalkTree(ByVal ParentNode As ComctlLib.Node)
