Private Sub DisplayLastChildName()
    If Me.CustomerNode.HasChildNodes Then
        MsgBox("The last child of '" & Me.CustomerNode.BaseName & _
            "' is '" & Me.CustomerNode.LastChild.BaseName & "'.")
    Else
        MsgBox("'" & Me.CustomerNode.BaseName & _
            "' has no child nodes.")
    End If 
End Sub
private void DisplayLastChildName()
{
    if (this.CustomerNode.HasChildNodes)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("The last child of '" + 
            this.CustomerNode.BaseName + "' is '" +
            this.CustomerNode.LastChild.BaseName + "'.");
    }
    else
    {
        MessageBox.Show("'" + this.CustomerNode.BaseName + 
            "' has no child nodes.");
