Bound Mode
In bound mode, the data is persisted in a database. For this purpose, the TcxDBTreeList control is bound to a TDataSet.
A dataset must have a particular structure, so that the TreeList control can build a node hierarchy. Each dataset record must contain a unique key value field that will identify the node in the control, and a parent key value field that will identify its parent node.
To learn more about a dataset structure that must conform to the tree list content, refer to the Self-Referenced Dataset help topic.
To learn how to link a tree list to the data source, refer to the Connecting to Data help topic.
