For example, such objects belong to a CurrencyManager.List collection, and CurrencyManager.Current returns one of them. <p>Objects obtained by bound controls from a C1DataObjects data source are not C1DataRow objects, although each of them corresponds to a <a href="C1.Data.2~C1.Data.C1DataRow.html">C1DataRow</a> object. The FromDataItem method represents this correspondence. Bound controls can get all information they need from the objects returned by the IList interface. However, if you want to work with such objects (data items) in code, get or set their field values, you need to treat them as <a href="C1.Data.2~C1.Data.C1DataRow.html">C1DataRow</a> objects. This method allows you to obtain a <a href="C1.Data.2~C1.Data.C1DataRow.html">C1DataRow</a> from an untyped row object (data item) returned by the IList interface. For example, C1WebGrid (bound grid control in ComponentOne Studio for ASP.NET) has a C1GridItem.DataItem property. This property returns an object obtained by the grid from the data source. It is not a C1DataRow object, so you must use C1DataRow.FromDataItem(C1GridItem.DataItem) to obtain the C1DataRow object corresponding to that data item.</p></div> <a name="exampleBookmark"></a> <a name="seealsobookmark"></a> <div class="SectionHeading" id="seealsoSectionHeading"><span class="SectionHeadingIcon"><!-- --></span><span class="SectionHeadingText">See Also</span></div><div id="seealsoSectionContent" class="SectionContent"><h4 class="subHeading">Reference</h4><p><a href="C1.Data.2~C1.Data.C1DataRow.html">C1DataRow Class</a> <br><a href="C1.Data.2~C1.Data.C1DataRow_members.html">C1DataRow Members</a> <br><a href="C1.Data.2~C1.Data.C1DataRow.html">C1DataRow Class</a> </p> </div> </div> <div id="FooterContent"> <p> </p><p> </p><hr style="height: 1px"><p>Copyright (c) <script type="text/javascript"> var theDate=new Date() document.write(theDate.getFullYear()) </script> GrapeCity, inc.
