Remarks

The TreeNodeExpanded event is raised when a node is expanded in the TreeView control. This allows you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine whenever this event occurs.

Note

If the SelectAction property for a node is set to TreeNodeSelectAction.Expand or TreeNodeSelectAction.SelectExpand, the TreeNodeExpanded event is also raised when that node is clicked in the TreeView control.

For more information about how to handle events, see Handling and Raising Events.
