object

Filename

A file name, where the contents are saved. If this file exists, it is overwritten. If the Filename argument is not NULL/Nothing, the Stream, StreamName arguments must be NULL/Nothing.

StreamName

Reserved for future use - Ignored. A stream name (part of the compound file FileName), where the contents are saved. If this stream exists, it is overwritten.

Format

NameValueDescription
saveFormatSftTreeStream0Stream
saveFormatSftTreePropertyPages1Stream as used by Property Page dialog (Load/Save Properties) - always saves all properties. The filename must be specified and the PropertiesLoaded argument is ignored.

Properties

Set to True to save tree control properties (in addition to items and their attributes), False to save just the items and their attributes.

Stream

The stream (IStream interface) where the data is saved. The Stream argument must be NULL/Nothing, if the Filename argument is not NULL/Nothing.

Comments

The Save method saves the control contents.

The Load method can be used to load the control contents saved using the Save method.

The Save/Load methods are intended for design-time property saving/loading to transfer the settings between controls. While items are also transferred, this is not recommended to be exploited by applications for quick data loading, as any images used in the control are saved in their entirety. Images shared between items (i.e., using the same image reference) will be individually copied resulting in excessive memory/windows handle use.
