Important

Do not call the CreateDrillDownDataSource method in the PivotGridControl.CustomSummary and PivotGridControl.CustomUnboundFieldData event handlers to avoid a stack overflow exception. Use the event arguments’ methods instead - the PivotGridCustomSummaryEventArgsBase<T>.CreateDrillDownDataSource and CustomFieldDataEventArgsBase<T>.GetListSourceColumnValue methods, respectively).
