This is pretty elementary computer science stuff.

If you have access to a tree item, you can:
for each tree item you have selected
1) write the data to the file,
2) find the item's children
3) for each child, repeat the above two steps.

I'm of mixed mind on this.  While it might help you for the immediate  
time, figuring it out how to do it (with some help) is the best way to  
learn.  I think I speak for many of the programmers here when I say that  
we had to do seemingly countless exercises in school on subjects like this  
-- and we became better programmers for it.

You have been given a good number of helpful clues by several posters to  
the list.
