To switch to a new version of the Expression Editor, set the ExpressionEditorMode property to ExpressionEditorMode.AutoComplete.

To allow end-users to edit unbound field expressions, set the PivotGridFieldOptionsEx.ShowUnboundExpressionMenu property to true. This adds the Expression Editor… command to this field’s context menu.

In code, call the PivotGridControl.ShowUnboundExpressionEditor method to invoke the Expression Editor.
