To learn VirtualTreeView

[asdf]

procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);

var
  n: integer;
  m: string;

begin

  for n:=0 to 8 do begin
  VirtualStringTree1.Header.Columns.Add;
  if n = 0  then m:= 'Zone';
  if n = 1  then m:= 'Year';
  if n = 2  then m:= 'Month';
  if n = 3  then m:= 'Date';
  if n = 4  then m:= 'Flour';
  if n = 5  then m:= 'Sugar';
  if n = 6  then m:= 'Butter';
  if n = 7  then m:= 'Total';
  if n = 8  then m:= 'Salesperson';
  VirtualStringTree1.Header.Columns[n].Text:=m;
  VirtualStringTree1.Header.Columns[n].Width:=100;
  end;

  for n:=0 to 3 do
  VirtualStringTree1.Header.Columns[n].Options:=VirtualStringTree1.Header.Columns[n].Options
                                                -[coAllowClick];

  VirtualStringTree1.Header.Options:=VirtualStringTree1.Header.Options
                                    +[hoVisible];

  VirtualStringTree1.Header.Style:=hsXPStyle;

  VirtualStringTree1.TreeOptions.PaintOptions:=VirtualStringTree1.TreeOptions.PaintOptions
                                              +[toshowtreelines]
                                              +[toshowroot];

  VirtualStringTree1.TreeOptions.MiscOptions:=VirtualStringTree1.TreeOptions.MiscOptions
                                             +[toEditable];

  VirtualStringTree1.TreeOptions.SelectionOptions:=VirtualStringTree1.TreeOptions.SelectionOptions
                                                   +[toExtendedFocus]
                                                   +[toMultiSelect];

  Form1.WindowState:=wsmaximized;

  
end;

procedure TForm1.LoadDataIntoTreeMenuItemClick(Sender: TObject);

var

  XNode: PVirtualNode;
  
begin
  
  XNode:=VirtualStringTree1.AddChild(nil);

end;

 

I'm learning to use VirtualTreeview,

What is XNode: PVirtualNode; ?

And from the attachment, how can I write codes to get VirtualTreeView 1, 2, 3 & 4 ?

Finally I just moved to use TreeListView instead.
It looks easier and I could finish learning/practicing the example within 1 hour.

One note: instead of all the If statement can use a case statement, it's more efficient.
Another option is a constant of const (unless you are going to translate it) and do something like this:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. const
2.  arrNames : array[0..8] of string = ('Zone', 'Year', 'Month' ...
3.
