Configure Where Parameters for a Data Source

Filter a data source's displayed values according to a Where expression. For example, after you create a grid and a text box, you can configure the data source so that when the end user enters a last name in the text box, the grid displays only the records with that last name. You can also order the results according to specific columns.
