cxExportPivotGridToCSV(string,TcxCustomPivotGrid,Boolean,Char,string,TObject,TEncoding) Method

Exports content of a pivot grid to a file in CSV (comma-separated values) format.

Declaration

procedure cxExportPivotGridToCSV(const AFileName: string; APivotGrid: TcxCustomPivotGrid; AExpand: Boolean = True; const ASeparator: Char = ','; const AFileExt: string = 'csv'; AHandler: TObject = nil; AEncoding: TEncoding = nil);

Parameters

Name Type Description
AFileName string

The full path to the resulting CSV file. You can omit the file name extension because it is automatically updated from the AFileExt parameter value.

APivotGrid TcxCustomPivotGrid

The source pivot grid control.

AExpand Boolean

Optional. If True, the procedure exports all rows, including the collapsed nested rows. If False, the procedure exports only visible rows.

ASeparator Char

Optional. Specifies the character used to delimit exported values in the resulting CSV file. The default separator character is a comma.

AFileExt string

Optional. Specifies the file name extension for the resulting CSV file. This parameter value always replaces the file name extension passed as a part of the AFileName parameter value.

AHandler TObject

Optional. Specifies a handler object that should implement the IcxExportBeforeSave and/or IcxExportProgress interfaces to allow you to perform specific actions before the beginning of an export operation and track its progress.

Tip

Refer to the following topic for detailed information on how to create and use handler objects:

How to: Track Data Export Progress

AEncoding TEncoding

Optional. Specifies the character encoding format of the resulting CSV stream.

If nil (in Delphi) or nullptr (in C++Builder) is passed as the AEncoding parameter (default), the procedure uses the TEncoding.Default encoding.

Remarks

Call the cxExportPivotGridToCSV procedure to export pivot grid content to a file in CSV format. In the resulting file, every plain text line of values separated by commas corresponds to a data record.
