• Recharge function argument is invalid...

  I have a problem with this message and a few similar once. When I get it I invoke the debugger and attempt to examine the variable/argument. In this particular case it is a memner of an array.

Collapse is an event, not a method and when I tried to use it as a method I could not get anywhere. I also tried to employ DblClick with the same negative result--the tree does not budge. Aside from Collapse I will need Expand as a method not event, although I am using it as even already. The expansion ...Show All
