Unbound Data Source

The Data Source Configuration Wizard allows you to bind the PivotGridControl to custom unbound data in a centralized manner using the UnboundSource component. To learn how to do this, see the following topic: Unbound Sources.

WinPivot_BoundToUnboundDataSource

After you have connected to the Unbound Data Source, you can use the Retrieve Fields command to retrieve the available data source fields. As an alternative, you can add specific fields manually using the PivotGrid Designer. To do this, use the Run Designer… command.
