The Collapse method collapses an item so its dependents are no longer visible.

The Collapse method collapses all dependent items of item ItemIndex and saves the expand/collapse state of all dependent items, so it can be restored by a subsequent Items.Expand or Item.Expand method call.

If a parent item is collapsed, subsequently adding child items will automatically expand the item.
