Isn't there a .visible property you can use?

You can't do this with the standard TreeView control that comes with VB5 / VB6. You'd have to get into some low-level subclassing to handle the custom-drawing of the nodes (ignoring the ones you want to hide).

It's a lot of work - I posted some code to the CG site over a year ago that handled painting each node a different colour (for VB5 - I know you can do it now with VB6)

Can't you just choose not to add those nodes to the tree ? or simply remove the ones from the tree you don't want shown and add them in when required ?
