TcxDataFindCriteria.Text Property

Specifies the text search string treated as one or more search criteria.

#Declaration

Delphi
property Text: string read; write;

#Property Value

Type
string

#Remarks

A data controller interprets this property value differently depending on whether the UseExtendedSyntax property value is:

  • False. The Text property specifies a single full-text search criterion.

  • True. The “+” (plus) and “-“ (minus) specifiers allow a user to provide additional search criterion words within a search string. The “_” (underscore) and “%” (percent) wildcards substitute one or multiple characters at the end of a search criterion word, respectively.
