GetChild(ChildRow) Method

Returns a reference to the first or last child row of a row.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Function GetChild( _
   ByVal child As ChildRow _
) As UltraGridRow

C#

public UltraGridRow GetChild( 
   ChildRow child
)

Parameters

child

Indicates which child row to retrieve.

Return Value

A reference to the first or last child row of a row.

Remarks

Invoke this method to return a reference to either the first or last child row of a parent row. If a child row does not exist, this method returns Nothing.

The band argument can be used to specify a child rowset in which a child row should be sought. If band is not specified, this method attempts to find a child row in all child rowsets.

The GetChild method can be invoked to determine whether a row has a child row.

The HasParent property and GetSibling method can be used to return references to a parent row and a sibling row, respectively.

Example

Following code shows you how to traverse through all the rows in the UltraGrid. It finds out the number of regular rows (non-group-by rows) and number of group-by rows and shows the counts.
