Public propertyCanPageGets a value indicating whether the DataSourceView object that is associated with the current DataSourceControl object supports paging through the data that is retrieved by the ExecuteSelect method.
Public propertyCanRetrieveTotalRowCountGets a value indicating whether the DataSourceView object that is associated with the current DataSourceControl object supports retrieving the total number of data rows instead of the data itself.
Public propertyCanSortGets a value indicating whether the DataSourceView object that is associated with the current DataSourceControl object supports a sorted view on the underlying data source.

Notes to Inheritors

When you inherit from the DesignerDataSourceView class, you must override the GetDesignTimeData method either to create sample data that conforms to the Schema property, or to return real data from the data source.

The following code example shows how to create a custom DesignerDataSourceView object along with a custom IDataSourceViewSchema class and two custom IDataSourceFieldSchema classes.

This example is part of a larger sample for the DataSourceDesigner class.

No code example is currently available or this language may not be supported.
