Property Value

Type	Description
ColumnFilterType	A ColumnFilterType enumeration value indicating the filtering type.

Available values:

Name	Description
None	Indicates that filtering is disabled.
Custom	Indicates that filtering is applied based on a custom filter string. The string should be constructed in compliance with SQL requirements.
Value	Indicates that a column should be filtered by a specific value.
AutoFilter	Indicates that a column’s values are filtered via the automatic filtering row.

Remarks

This property value is initialized in the constructor.

Note: the Type property may not reflect the actual filtering type. It is only used to provide a proper ColumnFilterInfo object initialization. After the initialization has been performed, a proper filtering expression is assigned to the ColumnFilterInfo.FilterString property. This expression is actually used to filter data.
