Example Code

Displaying Directory Hierarchy with the Tree Control

Code and Documents

Attachment

This example uses a Tree Control to display the hierarchy of files and folders in a given directory. The VI searches first for subfolders of the directory, then for files with names that match a pattern you specify, such as *.vi. The VI displays the files and folders of the directory in hierarchical order in a Tree Control.

Note: If you do not specify a pattern, the Tree Control displays all files except shortcuts.
