I actually want to do it without checkboxes,for eg we can select multiple folders in windows by pressing ctrl+mouse click.

I my application I have to perform drag drop for multiple selected nodes of a tree.

How can this be implemented?

 

Thanks.

You could use the checked property on the treeview and allow multiple selections based on the state of the checkbox on each node.

You could iterate through the treenodes to see which were checked (you'd really use recursion but here is an example that would iterate through two layers of nodes):

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

 

foreach (TreeNode t in treeView1.Nodes)

{

     if (t.Checked == true)

     sb.Append(t.Text + Environment.NewLine);

 

     if (t.Nodes.Count > 0)

     {

          foreach (TreeNode tt in t.Nodes)

          {

               if (tt.Checked == true)

                    sb.Append(tt.Text + Environment.NewLine);

          }

 

}

}

 

MessageBox.Show(sb.ToString(), "Checked Nodes");
