Automatic filtering - how it works

Top  Previous  Next

Control is connected to the data column using the "DataColumn" property. If the control can display a list of values (for example, ListBoxControl), it fills with values from the indicated data column. This happens automatically when the dialogue is shown. Further, the user works with the dialogue, selects one or several items in the control and closes the dialogue. At this time, the data source which was indicated in the "DataColumn" property is filtered automatically.

 

The advantage of this method is that, you can use it in any report without writing any code.
