[mahdi gh]

i used a dataview as radgridview dataSource. enable filtering is set to true. when i enter some data in filter editor box on top of columns, it works fine but it have no effect on dataview.RowFilter property.
the problem is when i want print those rows which currently is visible, i don't know what filter expression i should use in my crystal report object.

Hello Mahdi Gh,

To access the FilterDescriptors currently active on the grid, you can use

var filters = radGridView1.FilterDescriptors;

FilterDescriptor major properties:

• The PropertyName property defines the property, which values will be filtered.
• The Operator property allows you to define the type of operator. The possible values are: IsLike, IsNotLike, IsLessThan, IsLessThanOrEqualTo, IsEqualTo, IsNotEqualTo, IsGreaterThanOrEqualTo, IsGreaterThan, StartsWith, EndsWith, Contains, NotContains, IsNull,  IsNotNull, IsContainedIn, IsNotContainedIn.
• The Value property is the value your data will be compared against.

For more information on FilterDescriptors, please take a look at this help article or this one.

Hope this helps, if you have any other questions or comments, please let me know,

Best Regards,
Emanuel Varga

Hi, 

FilterDescriptor is the new way of saying FilterExpression
(I dont have the old version, so I can't check exactly, but I believe that's the case)
Hope that helps

Trying to remember, I think it's RadGridView.MasterGridViewTemplate.FilterExpressions
