Examples

Unbound Mode

In unbound mode, the TokenEdit stores tokens in the Properties.Tokens collection. The following example demonstrates how to add unbound tokens in code:

C#

tokenEdit1.Properties.BeginUpdate();
// Token values must be unique.
tokenEdit1.Properties.Tokens.AddToken("Description string A", "value1");
tokenEdit1.Properties.Tokens.AddToken("Description string B", "value2");
// ... add more tokens
tokenEdit1.Properties.EndUpdate();

VB.NET

tokenEdit1.Properties.BeginUpdate()
' Token values must be unique.
tokenEdit1.Properties.Tokens.AddToken("Description string A", "value1")
tokenEdit1.Properties.Tokens.AddToken("Description string B", "value2")
' ... add more tokens
tokenEdit1.Properties.EndUpdate()

Bound Mode

1. Use the Properties.DataSource property to bind the TokenEdit control to a data source.
2. Use the Properties.DisplayMember to specify the data field that stores token descriptions.
3. Use the Properties.ValueMember to specify the field that stores token values. Token values must be unique.

C#

tokenEdit1.Properties.BeginUpdate();
tokenEdit1.Properties.DataSource = queryBindingSource;
tokenEdit1.Properties.DisplayMember = "EmailAddress";
tokenEdit1.Properties.ValueMember = "EmailAddressID";
tokenEdit1.Properties.EndUpdate();

VB.NET

tokenEdit1.Properties.BeginUpdate()
tokenEdit1.Properties.DataSource = queryBindingSource
tokenEdit1.Properties.DisplayMember = "EmailAddress"
tokenEdit1.Properties.ValueMember = "EmailAddressID"
tokenEdit1.Properties.EndUpdate()
