<h5 id="C1_Win_FlexGrid_RowCol_DataMap_remarks">Remarks</h5>
<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>The <b>DataMap</b> property allows you to implement "translated" rows or columns. In translated rows or columns, 
the grid does not display the values stored in the cells. Instead, it looks up those values in the column's 
<b>DataMap</b> and displays the mapped value.</p>
<p>The grid also uses the <b>DataMap</b> value to populate drop-down lists when the column is editable.</p>
<p>Note that the <b>DataMap</b> property has no effect when the <a class="xref" href="C1.Win.FlexGrid.RowCol.ComboList.html#C1_Win_FlexGrid_RowCol_ComboList">ComboList</a> property is also
set. Using both properties on a single row or column is legal, but it effectively disables the <b>DataMap</b>.</p>
