Hi,

What can you do with the Table.DisplayExpression property?
I tried to use this as a custom name for my table but only table columns are
allowed?

Thanks

Isn't it the same as a calculated column?

Hi Bart,

This property constantly confuses people. Poorly named and described.

The original intention of this property was to provide a control like the
WinForms hierarchical grid a label to put on buttons used to navigate
between parent and child rows.

As far as I know, this property will be marked as obsolete in the next
version of .NET framework. I suggest you don't use this property in your
app.

HTH.
