    Fields Property (C1PivotEngine)
    In This Topic
    Gets the list of PivotField objects exposed by the data source.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public ReadOnly Property Fields As PivotFieldList
    public PivotFieldList Fields {get;}
    Remarks

    This list is created automatically whenever the DataSource property is set.

    PivotEngine views are defined by copying fields from this list to the lists that define the view: ValueFields, RowFields, ColumnFields, and FilterFields.

    Example
    The code below assigns a data source to the PivotEngine and then defines a view by adding fields to each of the RowFields, ColumnFields, and ValueFields lists.
    // set data source (populates Fields list)
    fp.DataSource = GetDataTable();
                
    // prevent updates while building PivotEngine view
    fp.BeginUpdate();
                
    // show countries in rows
    fp.RowFields.Add("Country");
                
    // show categories and products in columns
    fp.ColumnFields.Add("Category");
    fp.ColumnFields.Add("Product");
                
    // show total sales in cells
    fp.ValueFields.Add("Sales");
                
    // done defining the view
    fp.EndUpdate();
