You can retrieve a SummaryResult object by indexing into a SummaryResults collection off a Records collection in xamDataPresenter™. The Value property of the SummaryResult object returns the result of the summary. You may need to cast the Value property to the correct data type before using it in your application logic.
The built-in summary calculators will return the following data types:
The following example code demonstrates how to retrieve the result of a summary.
In Visual Basic:
...
'The code below assumes that you have at least one summary in the root-level field layout.
Try
Dim val As Object = Me.xamDataPresenter1.Records.SummaryResults(0).Value
Dim summaryValue As Decimal = Convert.ToDecimal(val)
MessageBox.Show(String.Format("First summary value is {0}", summaryValue))
Catch
'fail silently
End Try
...
In C#:
...
'The code below assumes that you have at least one summary in the root-level field layout.
try
{
object val = this.xamDataPresenter1.Records.SummaryResults[0].Value;
decimal summaryValue = Convert.ToDecimal(val);
MessageBox.Show(string.Format("First summary value is {0}", summaryValue));
}
catch
{
//fail silently
}
