The level at which the active item(s) appears in the hierarchy. Wire a value of 0 to this property to move the item to the highest level in the hierarchy.
If the active item is the column headers, this property returns an error. If the active item is all rows, this property returns an error.
If you wire a value to this property that is more than one level greater than the indent level of the item above the item you want to indent, this property returns an error.
This property is similar to the Indent Item and Outdent Item items on the shortcut menu of a tree control.
