3. Browse to a location and enter a file name in the File Name box.

4. Click Save to save the layout as an XML file.

In Code

Add the following code to the Click event of a button to save the layout of the grid:

· Visual Basic

Me.C1TrueDBGrid1.SaveLayout("c:\temp\ComposerLayout.xml")

· C#

this.c1TrueDBGrid1.SaveLayout(@"c:\temp\ComposerLayout.xml");

· Delphi

Self.C1TrueDBGrid1.SaveLayout('c:\temp\ComposerLayout.xml');
