Hi is it possible to filter a typedview using a predicate expression?

i have the list of all active students as a typedview and would like to filter the new enrolled students only.

i know i can create the predicate and call the fill method on typedview but the typedview is a cached object. the filter method uses the typedview and the filter as its parameters. it is something like:

FilterUsingStatus(ActiveStudentsTypedView toFilter, string status) { ... }

thanks in advance -shane

What do you mean by "Cached object"? The typedView is already filled and you want to filter it in memory?

that is right. but i would like to use a predicate expression (if possible) to do the filtering. this active students typed view does not change much and used often so i decided to fill it and keep in cache and filter it in memory. if in memory filtering it is not possible through predicate expression i think i ll just fill it whenever it is requested.

Not possible using predicateExpression.

but why do you insist on using a predicateExpression?

You can filter it using Linq, as shown here: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/linqprojectgeneral/thread/cc3b0486-1031-4113-afb6-29dfa6e0319b

Hint: a TypedView is a DataTable.
