Comments

The Document property defines the XML document representing the contents of the tree control.

Instead of saving/loading the tree control using the Document property or using the control's GetContents/SetContents methods, an application may wish to limit the amount of data saved by implementing its own save/load mechanism and save only the properties that are needed. Alternatively, if an application has an external data source, it may rebuild the tree control contents from its own data source, which may be significantly faster than an XML document. By implementing its own save/load mechanism an application could use a regular file or a custom format, which may also be significantly faster than an XML document.
