Show All
Hide AllTo create outline trees without using the Subtotal method, you need to follow these steps:
- Add rows to the grid.
- Turn some rows into outline nodes by setting their IsNode property to True.
- Get the Node object for each node row and set its Level property to define the node' s position in the tree hierarchy. Higher values mean the node is deeper (more indented) into the outline tree.
For example, the code below creates a directory tree:

The code above initializes the grid layout and calls the AddDirectory routine that does the job of populating the grid and setting up the tree structure:

Private Sub AddDirectory(ByVal dir As String, ByVal level As Integer)
' Add this directory.

thisDir = Path.GetFileName(dir)
If thisDir.Length = 0 Then thisDir = dir
_flex.AddItem(thisDir)
' Make this new row a node.
Dim row As Row
row = _flex.Rows(_flex.Rows.Count - 1)
row.IsNode = True
' Set the node level.
Dim nd As Node
nd = row.Node
nd.Level = level
' Add files in this directory.
Dim file As String, cnt As Integer, r As Row
cnt = 0
For Each file In Directory.GetFiles(dir)
_flex.AddItem(Path.GetFileName(file).ToLower())
r = _flex.Rows(_flex.Rows.Count – 1)
r.IsNode = True
r.Node.Level = level + 1
cnt = cnt + 1
If cnt > 10 Then Exit For
Next
' Add subdirectories (up to level 4).
If level <= 4 Then
Dim subdir As String
cnt = 0
For Each subdir In Directory.GetDirectories(dir)
AddDirectory(subdir, level + 1)
cnt = cnt + 1
If cnt > 10 Then Exit For
Next
End If
End Sub

AddDirectory is a recursive routine that traverses the current directory and all its subdirectories. In this example, the tree size is limited to four directory levels in order to save time. In a real application, the routine should be changed to populate tree branches only when they are expanded (see the FlexGrid for WinForms Tutorials).
This code creates a grid that looks like this:
