DataTable.Locale Property

Definition

Gets or sets the locale information used to compare strings within the table.

public:
 property System::Globalization::CultureInfo ^ Locale { System::Globalization::CultureInfo ^ get(); void set(System::Globalization::CultureInfo ^ value); };
public System.Globalization.CultureInfo Locale { get; set; }
[System.Data.DataSysDescription("DataTableLocaleDescr")]
public System.Globalization.CultureInfo Locale { get; set; }
member this.Locale : System.Globalization.CultureInfo with get, set
[<System.Data.DataSysDescription("DataTableLocaleDescr")>]
member this.Locale : System.Globalization.CultureInfo with get, set
Public Property Locale As CultureInfo

Property Value

A CultureInfo that contains data about the user's machine locale. The default is the DataSet object's CultureInfo (returned by the Locale property) to which the DataTable belongs; if the table doesn't belong to a DataSet, the default is the current system CultureInfo.

Attributes

Examples

The following example sets the CultureInfo through the Locale and prints the ISO language name.

private void ChangeCultureInfo(DataTable table)
{
    // Print the LCID  of the present CultureInfo.
    Console.WriteLine(table.Locale.LCID);

    // Create a new CultureInfo for the United Kingdom.
    CultureInfo myCultureInfo = new CultureInfo("en-gb");
    table.Locale = myCultureInfo;

    // Print the new LCID.
    Console.WriteLine(table.Locale.LCID);
}
Private Sub ChangeCultureInfo(table As DataTable)
   ' Print the LCID  of the present CultureInfo.
   Console.WriteLine(table.Locale.LCID)

   ' Create a new CultureInfo for the United Kingdom.
   Dim myCultureInfo As New CultureInfo("en-gb")
   table.Locale = myCultureInfo

   ' Print the new LCID.
   Console.WriteLine(table.Locale.LCID) 
End Sub

Remarks

A CultureInfo represents the software preferences of a particular culture or community.

When used for string comparisons, the CultureInfo affects sorting, comparisons, and filtering.

Note

In columns that contain expressions, the InvariantCulture is used. The CurrentCulture is ignored.
