Dynamically editing a node label in treeview

Question

Hi

I have a treeview control. I just want the user to edit the text of a node for the some specified nodes alone.

In treeview control i have labeledit property which makes the text editable for all nodes in the tree but i want only the corresponding node text to be editable..

Some thing like

treeview1.nodes[1].edit=true........

Anyway to do it...

Thanks in advance.

Your best bet is to keep LabelEdit set to true on your TreeView, but catch the BeforeLabelEdit event and set e.CancelEdit to true whenever the user attempts to edit a node unless you want to allow it.

To programmatically initiate an edit on a node, you can use TreeNode.BeginEdit().
