You could do a binary search to determine the starting point and with a DO WHILE...ENDDO loop terminate it when the end of the matches occurred.

Great minds think alike, right Michel? :-)

BTW, I'd agree with you about having access (no pun intended, despite my reputation) to the number of children if the .Nodes collection was recursively defined. Apparently, it isn't. If it was, you could access the total number of children via:

ThisForm.TreeView.Nodes(lnindex).Nodes.Count

The only other property that might apply is .Children, but that only returns the number of immediate children, and doesn't include children of children. You might be able to get that with a recursive function.
