Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Grid

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Grid.v24.2.Core.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.Grid.Core

Declaration

C#

[DefaultValue("")]
public string UnboundExpression { get; set; }

VB.NET

<DefaultValue("")>
Public Property UnboundExpression As String

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
String	String.Empty	A String that specifies an expression used to evaluate values for this column.

Remarks

The GridControl supports bound and unbound columns:

• Bound columns obtain their data from data fields in a grid’s data source.
• Unbound columns are not bound to any field in the data source. These columns must be populated manually by handling the GridControl.CustomUnboundColumnData event or using the UnboundExpression property.

Xaml

<dxg:GridColumn FieldName="DiscountAmount"
                UnboundDataType="{x:Type sys:Decimal}"
                UnboundExpression="Round([UnitPrice] * [Quantity] - [Total])">
</dxg:GridColumn>
