DataMember Property (UltraGridBase)

Indicates a sub-list of the DataSource to show in the UltraWinGrid.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property DataMember As String
public string DataMember {get; set;}
Remarks

Note: Setting the DataSource or the DataMember property causes the UltraGrid to load the data. Therefore to avoid loading data twice it's recommended that you set the DataMember before setting the DataSource or as a convenience use the SetDataBinding(Object,String,Boolean,Boolean) method which lets you set the DataSource and the DataMember in a single call.

Setting the DataSource and then setting the DataMember will cause the UltraGrid to load data twice; once when the DataSource is set and again when the DataMember is set. Setting the DataMember while the DataSource is null (Nothing in Visual Basic) does not cause the UltraGrid to load the data since there is no data source to load the data from. Also note that there is no need to call DataBind method after setting the DataSource and DataMember.

See DataSource property for more information.

Example
Following code sets some of the commonly used properties of the UltraGrid in the Form's Load event.

Imports Infragistics.Shared
Imports Infragistics.Win
Imports Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid

  Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

      Me.OleDbDataAdapter1.Fill(Me.DataSet11)
      Me.OleDbDataAdapter2.Fill(Me.DataSet11)
      Me.OleDbDataAdapter3.Fill(Me.DataSet11)

      ' Set the data source and data member to bind the grid.
      Me.UltraGrid1.DataSource = Me.DataSet11
      Me.UltraGrid1.DataMember = ""

      ' Disable alpha-blending which may increase performance.
      Me.UltraGrid1.AlphaBlendEnabled = False

      ' Disable theme support in WinXP based systems.
      Me.UltraGrid1.SupportThemes = False

      ' Set the appearance of the UltraGrid.
      Me.UltraGrid1.DisplayLayout.Appearance.BackColor = Color.Gray

      ' Set the border style of the UltraGrid.
      Me.UltraGrid1.DisplayLayout.BorderStyle = UIElementBorderStyle.InsetSoft

      ' Set the text, appearance and border styles of the caption.
      Me.UltraGrid1.Text = "UltraGrid Caption"
      Me.UltraGrid1.DisplayLayout.CaptionAppearance.FontData.Bold = DefaultableBoolean.True
      Me.UltraGrid1.DisplayLayout.BorderStyleCaption = UIElementBorderStyle.RaisedSoft

      ' Set the update mode which dictates when the UltraGrid calls EndEdit
      ' on IEditableObject row objects.
      Me.UltraGrid1.UpdateMode = UpdateMode.OnRowChangeOrLostFocus

      ' Set the scroll style to Immediate so that the UltraGrid scrolls the rows as
      ' the vertical scroll bar thumb is dragged. Normally the UltraGrid defers the
      ' scrolling until the thumb is released and displays scroll tips instead.
      Me.UltraGrid1.DisplayLayout.ScrollStyle = ScrollStyle.Immediate
