XlCustomFilterCriteria Class

Specifies a criterion value and comparison operator for a custom filter.

Namespace: DevExpress.Export.Xl

Assembly: DevExpress.Printing.v24.1.Core.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Printing.Core

Declaration

public class XlCustomFilterCriteria

The following members return XlCustomFilterCriteria objects:

Remarks

Create an instance of the XlCustomFilterCriteria class to define a filter criterion for a custom filter (XlCustomFilters). Specify a filter value (XlCustomFilterCriteria.Value) and a comparison operator (XlCustomFilterCriteria.FilterOperator).

Pass the created XlCustomFilterCriteria object to the XlCustomFilters constructor as a parameter to create the filter expression. If you create a complex filter expression containing two filter criteria, specify what logical operator (“AND” or “OR”) should be used to combine these criteria (XlCustomFilters.And).

// Generate the header row.
using (IXlRow row = sheet.CreateRow())
    row.BulkCells(new string[] { "Region", "Product", "Sales" }, headerRowFormatting);

// Create a custom filter to display values in the "Sales" column that are greater than $4500.
XlCustomFilters filter = new XlCustomFilters(new XlCustomFilterCriteria(XlFilterOperator.GreaterThanOrEqual, 4500));
sheet.AutoFilterColumns.Add(new XlFilterColumn(2, filter));
// Start filtering data.
sheet.BeginFiltering(sheet.DataRange);

// Generate data for the document.
string[] products = new string[] { "Camembert Pierrot", "Gorgonzola Telino", "Mascarpone Fabioli", "Mozzarella di Giovanni" };
int[] amount = new int[] { 6750, 4500, 3550, 4250, 5500, 6250, 5325, 4235 };
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
{
    using (IXlRow row = sheet.CreateRow())
    {
        using (IXlCell cell = row.CreateCell())
        {
            cell.Value = (i < 4) ? "East" : "West";
            cell.ApplyFormatting(rowFormatting);
        }
        using (IXlCell cell = row.CreateCell())
        {
            cell.Value = products[i % 4];
            cell.ApplyFormatting(rowFormatting);
        }
        using (IXlCell cell = row.CreateCell())
        {
            cell.Value = amount[i];
            cell.ApplyFormatting(rowFormatting);
        }
    }

// Finish filtering.
sheet.EndFiltering();
