<h5 id="C1_Report_DataSource_Recordset_remarks">Remarks</h5>
<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>Usually, the control creates a data object based on the value of the 
<a class="xref" href="C1.Report.DataSource.ConnectionString.html#C1_Report_DataSource_ConnectionString">ConnectionString</a> and <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.DataSource.RecordSource.html#C1_Report_DataSource_RecordSource">RecordSource</a> properties, and uses that object 
as the report data source.</p>
<p>Alternatively, you may want to create the data source object yourself, and assign it to 
the control. You can do that by assigning your data source object to the <b>Recordset</b>
property.</p>
<returns>
