Remarks
RangeStartParameter is a date range parameter‘s nested parameter that specifies the range’s start date.
An instance of RangeStartParameter is created when you instantiate the RangeParametersSettings class. Use the RangeParameterSettings.StartParameter property to access the RangeStartParameter instance.
Specify the following properties to configure a date range parameter’s nested start parameter:
- Name - the parameter’s name that you can use to refer to the parameter.
- Value - the parameter’s value.
- ExpressionBindings - the parameter’s expression bindings collection.
Example
The code sample below uses a RangeParametersSettings class instance to create a date range parameter, set the range value to the last 7 days, and filter report data by this range.
using DevExpress.XtraReports.Parameters;
using DevExpress.XtraReports.Expressions;
// ...
XtraReport1 report = new XtraReport1();
// Create a date range parameter.
Parameter myDateRange = new Parameter();
myDateRange.Name = "myDateRange";
myDateRange.Description = "Date Range:";
// Set the Visible property to true to request the parameter value from users.
// Set this property to false to silently apply the parameter's value.
myDateRange.Visible = false;
myDateRange.Type = typeof(System.DateTime);
RangeParametersSettings myDateRangeSettings = new RangeParametersSettings();
myDateRangeSettings.StartParameter.Name = "MyDateRangeStart";
// Set the range parameter's start date to 7 days ago.
myDateRangeSettings.StartParameter.ExpressionBindings.Add(new BasicExpressionBinding("Value", "AddDays(Today(), -7)"));
myDateRangeSettings.EndParameter.Name = "MyDateRangeEnd";
// Set the range parameter's end date to today.
myDateRangeSettings.EndParameter.ExpressionBindings.Add(new BasicExpressionBinding("Value", "Today()"));
myDateRange.ValueSourceSettings = myDateRangeSettings;
report.Parameters.Add(myDateRange);
// Filter report data by the specified start and end dates.
report.FilterString = "GetDate([OrderDate]) Between(?MyDateRangeStart,?MyDateRangeEnd)";
