Property Value

Type Default Description
DateTimeGroupInterval Year

A DateTimeGroupInterval enumeration member that specifies how to group date-time values.

Remarks

Use the DateTimeGroupInterval property to specify how to group date-time values contained in this Dimension. For instance, they can be grouped by years, months, quarters, days of the week, hours, days of the year, etc.

You can also use the DataItem.DateTimeFormat property to specify how to format these values depending on their group interval.
