Creating a Data Item in GridWorX

A data item is an instance of a data source with parameters already set. This gives you a way to assign a user-friendly name to customized data sources and use them without having to specify the parameter values.

To Create a Data Item:

1. Right-click on the Data Source and select a new data item. You may want to change the name of this data item. In the figure below, it is changed to CategoryID.
2. Assign values for all parameters in the Parameter Value field.
