Populate GridView in Server Mode Using Tables Provided at Runtime

created 16 years ago

Hello,
We currently have a GridView that will eventually be used in a product where the datasource is not known at compile time and is instead chosen by a user connecting to a database. For large datasets this of course falls over (and we do expect large data sets to be used) and as such I was investigating the possability of using the Grid View in Server Mode.
My issue is that from the documentation I have read so far, namely How to: Bind a GridControl to a Database in Server Mode and XPServerCollectionSource, at least currently it seems that the only way to make use of server mode is to declare a table structure at compile time for later use.
Is there any way that server mode can be made use of without the declaration of table structures at compile time?
Thanks
