    Syntax
    'Declaration
 
Public Function GetChildContexts() As IEnumerable(Of DataGridContext)
    'Usage
 
Dim instance As DataGridContext
Dim value As IEnumerable(Of DataGridContext)
 
value = instance.GetChildContexts()
    public IEnumerable<DataGridContext> GetChildContexts()

    Return Value

    An IEnumerable that contains the child DataGridContexts of the context. Can be empty if the context does not have child contexts.
    Example

    All examples in this topic assume that the grid is bound to the Employees table of the Northwind database, unless stated otherwise.

    The following example demonstrates how to retrieve the child contexts of the master data items and collapse any expanded details using the CollapseDetail method.The next example provides the implementation of the button's Click event.The next example provides the implementation of the button's Click event.
