TransferChildren Method

TransferChildren Method

Moves the child nodes of the source diagram node to the target (receiving) diagram node.

expression   Required. An expression that returns a DiagramNode object.

ReceivingNode  Required DiagramNode object. The node to which to transfer the child nodes.

Example

The following example transfers the child nodes of a newly-created diagram from one node to another.

Sub TransferChildNodes()
    Dim dgnNode As DiagramNode
    Dim shpDiagram As Shape
    Dim intCount As Integer

    'Add organizational chart to current document
    Set shpDiagram = ThisDocument.Shapes.AddDiagram _
        (Type:=msoDiagramOrgChart, Left:=10, _
        Top:=15, Width:=400, Height:=475)

    'Add first node to organizational chart
    Set dgnNode = shpDiagram.DiagramNode.Children.AddNode

    'Add three child nodes to first node
    For intCount = 1 To 3
        dgnNode.Children.AddNode
    Next intCount

    'Add three child nodes to the first child node
    'of the first node
    For intCount = 1 To 3
        dgnNode.Children.Item(1).Children.AddNode
    Next intCount

    'Move the child nodes of the first child node
    'so they become child nodes of the third child node
    dgnNode.Children.Item(1).TransferChildren _
        ReceivingNode:=dgnNode.Children.Item(3)

End Sub
