Property Value

Type Description
Boolean

true if data members should be validated; otherwise, false. The default value is true.

Remarks

ChartControl chart = new ChartControl();
chart.ValidateDataMembers = true;  

When the ValidateDataMembers property is set to true, the Chart Control verifies whether data member fields exist in the data source. The following property values pass this validation:

If a field does not exist in the data source, the System.ArgumentException is thrown with the following message: “The data source does not contain a data member with the <field_name>.”

When the ValidateDataMembers property is set to false, the Chart displays available data source values.
