Position of the tree items is inter changed..

Hi all

i have a little problem , i want to check tree view items  under the root node

----rootnode

     |

     ......item 1

     |

     ......item 2

     |

     ......item 3

     |

     ......item 4

     |

     ......item 5



I am geting the text of these items with treeviewobject.SelectedNode.Nodes.Item(i).Text through a loop and comparing them with the expeceted item in the array.



Problem is that when treeviewobject.SelectedNode.Nodes.Item(i).Text i get the items then item number 3 and item number 4 are interchanged when i get these item text.. item 3 displaying inplace of item 4 and item 4 in place of item 3 .



How can i resolve this problem i want to compare the nodes under the root node with expeced data ???
