Click on specific part of multipart control.

I am trying to build a platform for performing tests on our winforms application  and I'm trying to find a way to reliably click on the correct item in a treeview (a ComponentOne treeview to be specific).  Ideally I would like to be able to perform the click based on the text but a second best solution would be to to coordinates relative to the active window; the latter is not ideal as it the items aren't guaranteed to always be in the same location but with some extra work I should be able to correct position for 9 out of 10 scenarios.

I'm also open to other suggestions if anyone else has found an alternative method for achieving this.

So 5 more minutes after posting this (having done an hour or so of research prior) I stumbled across the ability to specify coordinates to the ControlClick method that are relative to the control.

As per my first post this isn't ideal, but it will definitely be a step in the right direction.

Don't use controlclick...that will be as unreliable as a mouseclick in this situation.

Use the __GUICtrlTreeView_* functions.
