Used treeview.SelectedNode to select a child node. How to invoke treeview.AfterSelect event when a node is selected programmatically?

this.treeView1.SelectedNode = this.treeView1.Nodes[0].Nodes[0].Nodes[0].Nodes[0]; 
if (this.treeView1.Nodes[0].Nodes[0].Nodes[0].Nodes[0].IsSelected) 
{
 MessageBox.Show("Node is selected"); 
}

Apologies for my previously mixed up answer.

Here is how to do:

myTreeView.SelectedNode = myTreeNode;

(Update)

I have tested the code below and it works:

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        treeView1.Nodes.Add("1", "1");
        treeView1.Nodes.Add("2", "2");
        treeView1.Nodes[0].Nodes.Add("1-1", "1-1");
        TreeNode treeNode = treeView1.Nodes[0].Nodes.Add("1-2", "1-3");
        treeView1.SelectedNode = treeNode;
        MessageBox.Show(treeNode.IsSelected.ToString());
    }


}
