Gets a reference to an XMLNodesCollection collection that is populated with XML Document Object Model (DOM) nodes based on the current selection of items in a view.

public:
 Microsoft::Office::Interop::InfoPath::XMLNodesCollection ^ GetSelectedNodes();

public Microsoft.Office.Interop.InfoPath.XMLNodesCollection GetSelectedNodes ();

abstract member GetSelectedNodes : unit -> Microsoft.Office.Interop.InfoPath.XMLNodesCollection

Public Function GetSelectedNodes () As XMLNodesCollection

Returns

XMLNodesCollection

A reference to the XMLNodesCollection collection.

Implements

GetSelectedNodes()

Examples

In the following example, the GetSelectedNodes method of the ViewObject object is used to set a reference to a collection of XML DOM nodes based on what is currently selected in the view. Then the code determines whether nodes were returned and, if they were, displays information about the first node found in the XMLNodesCollection collection in a message box.

XMLNodesCollection selectedNodes = thisXDocument.View.<span class="label">GetSelectedNodes</span>();

if (selectedNodes.Count &gt; 0)
{
 thisXDocument.UI.Alert(selectedNodes[0].nodeName + "\n\n" + selectedNodes[0].text);
}

Remarks

If no items are selected in a view, or if only text is selected, then the GetSelectedNodes method returns an empty collection.

Note: The GetSelectedNodes method will not return nodes based on the current selection if used in the OnClick event of a button in the view, since the focus is lost from the control that is intended to be in context. To avoid this behavior, use the GetSelectedNodes method from a custom task pane, menu or toolbar.
