Whether the data retrieved from query mode Values Yes — Sorting is enabled. No — |
Usage
If the DataWindow is not already in query mode, setting QuerySort
to Yes also sets QueryMode to Yes, putting the DataWindow in query
mode.
When you set QuerySort to No, the DataWindow remains in query mode
until you also set QueryMode to No.
Query mode and secondary
DataWindows
When you are sharing data, you cannot turn on query mode for a
secondary DataWindow. Trying to set the QueryMode or QuerySort
properties results in an error.
