__property System::UnicodeString Expression = {read=FExpression, write=SetExpression};

Description

Specifies the expression to use for records sorting.

Set the Expression property value to a formula. The records of the dataset view are ordered by these formula values, calculated for each record.

Assignment to the Expression property value erases a Fields property value. The view sort order can be either expressional (Expression is specified), or field list-based (Fields is specified).

Alternatively, you can use Options to setup sorting.
