#Remarks
The LinqServerModeSource component allows you to bind the GridControl or PivotGridControl to an IQueryable query provider, and enable server mode. To do this, follow the steps listed below:
specify the key field name for objects retrieved from a data source using the LinqServerModeSource.KeyExpression property:
linqServerModeSource1.KeyExpression = "CustomerID";
specify the queryable source via the LinqServerModeSource.QueryableSource property. This property should be set in code:
public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); linqServerModeSource1.QueryableSource = new DataClasses1DataContext().Customers; }
- bind the control to the LinqServerModeSource component.
