treeview to string?

[gordon]

Hi

I am trying to get the selection from a tree view with a child node to be
written to the value of a label.

I am using...

private void btnShow_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

{

lblShow=tvSelection.SelectedNode.ToString();

}

but am getting an error - Cannot implicitly convert type 'string' to
System.Windows.Forms.Label

the treeview has two parents and several child nodes (all at the immediate
child level).

thanks

>lblShow=tvSelection.SelectedNode.ToString();

You probably want

lblShow.Text = tvSelection.SelectedNode.Text;

You are trying to assign a string to the label rather than the label's Text
property.
