Selecting the same node in a TreeView

[CodeMonkey]

Hi all,
Please forgive the stupidity of this question but I am working with Treeviews for the first time. My problem is as follows: When I select a Node in my TreeView I display a form based upon the selected Node (for e.g If I select Customer, the I display the Customer Form). The code for this is in the AfterSelect event and that works fine. But if I try to select the Customer node again (without selecting another node first) my form is not displayed. Can anyone please tell me what event I should be putting my code in so that I can determine the currently selected node to display my forms, but still be able to select the same node as many times in a row as I like.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Just a few comments that may help.

1. Remember a node can be clicked or double clicked and its probably
best to use the double click because it sets it harder. ( for lack
of a better word)

Private Sub TreeView1_DoubleClick(ByVal eventSender As System.Object, ByVal eventArgs As System.EventArgs) Handles TreeView1.DoubleClick

dim CurNodeText as string = TreeView1.SelectedNode.Text
Node = CurNodeText

I think of single clicks as highlights in preperation for a right click or
drag.


Treeviews are fun, you can color code them for different types of
forms and even cooler with black backgrounds with nice fonts.

Its been awhile since I worked with them so let me know if this
doesn't help and I will check better.

I would probably do some trick ... after you select the certain item do unselect for the item, programatically maybe if you bring focus to another control and then when you reselect the treeview item it will arise the same action again.
