ExportGridDataToXML(string,TcxGrid,Boolean,Boolean,string,TObject) Method

Exports cell content of a data grid to a file in XML format.

Declaration

procedure ExportGridDataToXML(const AFileName: string; AGrid: TcxGrid; AExpand: Boolean = True; ASaveAll: Boolean = True; const AFileExt: string = 'xml'; AHandler: TObject = nil);

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
AFileName	string	The full path to the resulting XML file. You can omit the file name extension because it is automatically updated from the AFileExt parameter value.
AGrid	TcxGrid	The source data grid control.
AExpand	Boolean	Optional. If True, the procedure exports all rows, including the rows hidden within collapsed group rows and master rows. If False, the procedure exports only visible rows.
ASaveAll	Boolean	Optional. If True, the procedure exports all or visible rows, depending on the AExpand parameter value. If False, the procedure exports only selected rows. In grid mode, the ASaveAll parameter value is ignored.
AFileExt	string	Optional. Specifies the file name extension for the resulting XML 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 an export operation and track its progress. Refer to the following topic for detailed information on how to create and use handler objects: How to: Track Data Export Progress.

Remarks

This procedure works similarly to ExportGridToXML. Unlike it, ExpressGridDataToXML exports only cell content in a simplified layout and ignores styles and look & feel settings.
