How to get the name of the selected child node in a treeview list in c#?

Question

I am using the command:

selecteddirectory = treeViewDirectory.SelectedNode.Text;

However this always gives the name of the parent node and not the child node selected. How to go about doing this?

Treeview give you the the parent node. You need to implement ParentNode.ChildNode — Mansinh

You can call the treeview_AfterSelect event to select the child node.

 private void treeView1_AfterSelect(object sender, TreeViewEventArgs e)
        {
            string selectedNodeText = e.Node.Text;
            MessageBox.Show(selectedNodeText);
        }
