Syntax
'Declaration
Public Property ShortName As String
public string ShortName { get; set; }
Property Value
Type: System.String
Either a resource name or the non-localized text that is used as the column label for an element that is bound to the member.
Remarks
Set the ShortName property to either a literal non-localized string or to a resource key to use with the ResourceType property to specify a localized short name.
Do not use the get accessor of the ShortName property to retrieve the text to display in your Silverlight application. Instead, use the GetShortName method to retrieve the short name value. The GetShortName method returns either the literal non-localized string or the localized string when a resource type is specified.
