- Attributes
Remarks
The child entries are only the immediate children of this node.
Use this property to find, retrieve, or create a directory entry in the hierarchy. This property is a collection that, along with the usual iteration capabilities, provides an Add method through which you add a node to the collection directly below the parent node that you are currently bound to. When adding a node to the collection, you must specify a name for the new node and the name of a schema template that you want to associate with the node. For example, you might want to use a schema titled "Computer" to add new computers to the hierarchy.
Note
By default, changes are made locally to a cache. After you modify or add a node, you must call the CommitChanges method to commit your changes in order for them to be saved to the tree. If you call RefreshCache() before calling CommitChanges, any uncommitted changes to the property cache will be lost. For more information, see the CommitChanges and RefreshCache() methods, and the UsePropertyCache property.
