Filtering and Searching

  • 2 minutes to read

The Filtering feature allows you to display a subset of records in the data source that meet the desired criteria. When filtering is applied, only data rows that meet the specified criteria are displayed. You can filter data against single or multiple columns.

Applying filtering to a column does not affect the filter settings of other columns. Column filters are combined by the AND operator into a single filter expression which is applied to the grid. The filter string works like the WHERE clause of an SQL SELECT statement.

Note

The GridControl ignores custom CellTemplates when users filter data. Use other techniques to format cell values if you want to affect filter operations.

Tip

The Data Grid supports AI-powered Semantic Search. Unlike standard keyword-based search, semantic search leverages Natural Language Processing (NLP) to analyze search queries beyond exact keyword matching. See the following help topic for additional information: Semantic Search AI-powered Extension.
