Filter in parent records only doesn't work

 

Maybe wndReportControl.SortRecordChildren = False will help

 

 

 

Of course that doesn't help, SortRecordChildren property is for sorting  

 

But you are right about Filter only Parents... Well, it works as should but it's a pity that Record children aren't visible anymore. Would be nice if CJ would implement this as well  

 

For now you have to do this yourself but I will add this to the list and maybe, just maybe CJ will implement this.

 

Good luck

 

 

I added this to my list as well  I though after applying filter it would be easy to make child records visible again but it seems I can't because filter is still applied  But if you are desperate you could use following code instead and will hide only parent records which don't match textToSearch string

 

Private Function FilterReportItems(columnToSearch As Integer, textToSearch As String)
    Dim xtremeRecord As XtremeReportControl.ReportRecord
   
    With Me.wndReportControl
        For Each xtremeRecord In .Records
            xtremeRecord.Visible = True 
            If xtremeRecord.Childs.Count > 0 Then
                If Not UCase(xtremeRecord(columnToSearch).Caption) Like "*" & UCase(textToSearch) & "*" Then
                    xtremeRecord.Visible = False
                End If
            End If
        Next xtremeRecord
       
        .Populate
    End With
 
End Function

 

 

 

Depends on the amount of records you have but with above code I tried with 25000 records (with each 3 child items) it takes about 4 seconds to filter on one item (I have to say I have a very "slow" laptop - 800MHz) I will try this at the office and see what results I get.

 

But you are right, would be better if CJ added this option
