Glossary Item Box

Gets or sets an expression that identifies the parent group in a recursive hierarchy.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Public Property Parent As ExpressionInfo
C# 
public ExpressionInfo Parent {get; set;}

Property Value

An ExpressionInfo object indicating the parent group in a recursive hierarchy.

Remarks

This property only applies if the group has exactly one group expression

Indicates the following:

  1. Groups are sorted according to the recursive hierarchy (sort is still used to sort peer groups).
  2. Labels (in the document map) are indented according to the recursive hierarchy.
  3. Intra-group show/hide toggles items according to the recursive hierarchy (see ToggleItem).

If filters on the group eliminate the parent of a group instance, it is instead treated as a child of the parent's parent.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
