Remarks

The Area property determines the area in which the data field headers are displayed when there are two or more data fields. This property also enables the data header which allows end-users to move data field headers between and within the column header area and row header area.

By default, the data field headers are displayed as column headers:

PivotGrid_DataField_DataFieldHeaders

If the Area property is set to PivotDataArea.ColumnArea the data field headers are still displayed as column headers. In addition, the data header is enabled and displayed within the column header area. The data header is a header which is linked with the data field headers. It can be dragged to a specific position within the column header area or row header area and as a result the data field headers will be moved to an appropriate location.

PivotGrid_DataField_DataHeader

If the Area property is set to PivotDataArea.RowArea the data header will be moved to the row header area and the data field headers will be displayed as row headers:

PivotGrid_DataField_DataFieldHeaders_Row
