XtraReportBase.GetCurrentRow() Method

Returns the current data row from a collection assigned to a report’s Data Member property. If the property is not specified, the method returns the current value from a root collection of the report’s Data Source.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraReports.UI

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraReports.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Reporting.Core

Declaration

C#

public object GetCurrentRow()

VB.NET

Public Function GetCurrentRow As Object

Returns

Type	Description
Object	The current data row.

Remarks

Use the GetCurrentRow method when you bind a report to a business object (such as Object Data Source, EF Data Source, or XPO Data Source) to retrieve data from the object’s methods or properties with custom logic. Call the GetCurrentRow method in control event handlers (for example, in a BeforePrint handler) to obtain a business object, then get a value from the object’s method or property.

C#

private void xrLabel1_BeforePrint(object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e) {
    var currRow = GetCurrentRow();
}

VB.NET

Private Sub xrLabel1_BeforePrint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles xrLabel1.BeforePrint
    Dim currRow = GetCurrentRow()
End Sub

If you want to get the current value of a data source column (field), use the GetCurrentColumnValue(String) method instead.

Get the Current Row in a Detail Report

To get the current data row from a collection assigned to a detail report’s Data Member (Data Source) property, call the detail report’s GetCurrentRow method in control event handlers (for example, in a BeforePrint handler).

C#

private DevExpress.XtraReports.UI.DetailReportBand DetailReport1;

private void xrLabel2_BeforePrint(object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e) {
    var currRow = DetailReport1.GetCurrentRow();
}

VB.NET

Private DetailReport1 As DevExpress.XtraReports.UI.DetailReportBand

Private Sub xrLabel2_BeforePrint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles xrLabel2.BeforePrint
    Dim currRow = DetailReport1.GetCurrentRow()
End Sub

You can also use a control’s Report property to access the report to which the control belongs. This property can be useful if your report consists of multiple nested detail reports, and you want to access a control’s detail report in a control event handler.

C#

using DevExpress.XtraReports.UI;
// ...
private void xrLabel3_BeforePrint(object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e) {
    var label = sender as XRLabel;
    var currRow = label.Report.GetCurrentRow();
}

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.XtraReports.UI
' ...
Private Sub xrLabel3_BeforePrint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles xrLabel3.BeforePrint
    Dim label = TryCast(sender, XRLabel)
    Dim currRow = label.Report.GetCurrentRow()
End Sub
