How can I disable selection of a TreeNode in a TreeView in VB.NET?
I'm currently implementing a navigation menu using a TreeView control.
In the menu I'm using headers (root nodes) to group menu items. These headers should only have one purpose: double-click collapse/uncollapse. For this reason it should'nt be possible to select and mark the node, but as default this is possible. What can I do to avoid that the headers can be selected? And is there a way to do this by setting TreeNode properties so that selection events doesn't have to be handled?

The fastest submitter gets a little more :) The approach seems good, I'll try to combine it with a handling of the selection color so that the temporary selection will be invisible.
