DataMember Property

Gets or sets the specified list in an DataSource to which the report will bind.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Property DataMember As String

public string DataMember {get; set;}

Remarks

Default is an empty string.

If a data source, such as a dataset, contains multiple lists, you must set the DataMember to a list contained in the data source. The ActiveReports built-in data sources always contain a single data source, hence do not require that this property be set.

Example

private void rptProducts_ReportStart(object sender, System.EventArgs eArgs)
{
    rptProducts rpt = new rptProducts();
    localhost.DataSetWS ws = new localhost.DataSetWS();
    DataSet ds = ws.GetProduct(); 
    this.DataSource = ds;
    this.DataMember = "Products";
}

Visual Basic

Private Sub rptProducts_ReportStart(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.ReportStart
    Dim rpt As New rptProducts()
    Dim ws As New localhost.DataSetWS()
    Dim ds As New DataSet()
    ds = ws.GetProduct()
    Me.DataSource = ds
    Me.DataMember = "Products"
End Sub
