The following code example gets the TreeNode that was collapsed and creates a copy of it using its Handle property. The original TreeNode is removed from the TreeNodeCollection, and the copy is added to the collection. This example requires that you have a Form with a TreeView control on it. The TreeView control should have two or more root nodes, each having at least one child node.

private:
   void treeView1_AfterCollapse( Object^ /*sender*/, TreeViewEventArgs^ e )
   {
      // Create a copy of the e.Node from its Handle.
      TreeNode^ tn = TreeNode::FromHandle( e->Node->TreeView, e->Node->Handle );
      tn->Text = String::Concat( tn->Text, "Copy" );

      // Remove the e.Node so it can be replaced with tn.
      e->Node->Remove();

      // Add tn to the TreeNodeCollection.
      treeView1->Nodes->Add( tn );
   }

private void treeView1_AfterCollapse(object sender, TreeViewEventArgs e)
{
   // Create a copy of the e.Node from its Handle.
   TreeNode tn = TreeNode.FromHandle(e.Node.TreeView, e.Node.Handle);
   tn.Text += "Copy";
   // Remove the e.Node so it can be replaced with tn.
   e.Node.Remove();
   // Add tn to the TreeNodeCollection.
   treeView1.Nodes.Add(tn);
}

Private Sub treeView1_AfterCollapse(sender As Object, _
  e As TreeViewEventArgs) Handles treeView1.AfterCollapse
   ' Create a copy of the e.Node from its Handle.
   Dim tn As TreeNode = TreeNode.FromHandle(e.Node.TreeView, e.Node.Handle)
   tn.Text += "Copy"
   ' Remove the e.Node so it can be replaced with tn.
   e.Node.Remove()
   ' Add tn to the TreeNodeCollection.
   treeView1.Nodes.Add(tn)
End Sub

If a handle is not already created when the Handle property is referenced, it is created.
