I am trying to use SaveAsXml to save to a stream but cannot find a stream that will work... I have tried StringWriter but it won't pass the syntax check and you cannot create a generic stream. What streams work. I just want a string of the XML
Visual Basic if possible please.
Hello wltaylor,
Please take a look at the following link in which you could find a Visual Basic example as well:
http://help.infragistics.com/NetAdvantage/WinForms/2012.1/CLR2.0/?page=Infragistics2.Win.UltraWinGrid.v12.1~Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraGridLayout~SaveAsXml(Stream,PropertyCategories).html.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need any additional assistance.
So I guess judging from the example, the only save supported is to an actual file, which is not what I want becuase I want to store the results in a database, so I guess I will have to create a temp file, write out the settings, then read them back in, place the string in the database, and then delete the temp file.
Hi,

No, that is not correct. You can save to either a file or a stream. If you want to save the layout to a database, then I suggest using a MemoryStream. Here's a KB article which describes how to do this:
