Remarks
Use this enumeration’s members to specify whether the resulting file should be automatically opened. This enumeration’s values are used by the PrintPreviewOptions.ActionAfterExport property.
Example
This example illustrates how to specify the primary export options of a report by using the XtraReport.ExportOptions property. These options are taken into account when a document is being exported from a print preview.
This example presumes that a report is exported silently, without prompting an end-user to customize the export options.
All available export options are listed in the ExportOptionKind enumeration.
