XRCrossTab.DataMember Property

Specifies the data source member that provides data to the Cross Tab control.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraReports.UI

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraReports.v20.2.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.Reporting.Core, DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Reporting.Core

Declaration

C#

[DefaultValue("")]
[SRCategory(ReportStringId.CatData)]
public string DataMember { get; set; }

VB.NET

<SRCategory(ReportStringId.CatData)>
<DefaultValue("")>
Public Property DataMember As String

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
String	String.Empty	The data member name.

Remarks

Use the DataSource and DataMember properties to provide a data source to the XRCrossTab control individually.

At design time, you can access the DataSource and DataMember properties in the Cross Tab control’s smart tag. Expand the DataSource property’s drop-down list and click Add Report Data Source.

Follow the steps in the invoked Data Source Wizard to configure a data source. Once you complete the wizard, the DataSource and DataMember properties are set.

Note

If you change the Cross Tab’s DataSource property value, the DataMember property is changed as well.

See the Bind Reports to Data documentation section for more information about data sources.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to create and configure the Cross Tab control in code.
