Tree Control Highlighting Programmatically Selected Item

[WPS]

Does anyone know whether it is possible to highlight a programmatically selected item in the LV Tree Control, eg I have used the "Get Child" method to select an item - how do I then highlight this item on the tree?

Yes, you can write the value to a local variable for the tree control. This will have the effect of selecting the item--which will highlight just ike the user clicked on it.

By the way, "Get Child" doesn't select an item in any sort of useful sense--it just tells you what the child is. Actually, it tells you what the first child under the indicated Parent is.

Thanks Mike - I am half asleep as it makes sense that since you get the selected item tag directly from the control you would write a tag to the control to programatically select an item.
