TextNoCase
The same as Text, but sorted case insensitively.
Number
Numbers are stored as floating point values within the item. Thus, if your data contains decimal values, make sure you include the decimal when you set the item's data. In other words, there is no equivalent MD2 format for the SRP Tree Control. Instead, an Excel-like syntax is employed to format and round off decimal numbers.
...
Dates are stored in a proprietary format within the SRP Tree Control. Currently, dates must be in OI's internal format when passing them to the ItemData property. In other words, the SRP Tree Control will not parse string dates on your behalf. Like Numbers, the SRP Tree Control uses an Excel-like syntax to format dates.
...
Times are stored in a proprietary format within the SRP Tree Control. Currently, times must be in OI's internal format when passing them to the ItemData property. In other words, the SRP Tree Control will not parse string time on your behalf. The SRP Tree Control uses an Excel-like syntax to format times.
...
DateTimes are stored in a proprietary format within the SRP Tree Control. Currently, date & times must be in OI's internal format when passing them to the ItemData property. In other words, the SRP Tree Control will not parse string date & times on your behalf. Like individual Dates and Times, the SRP Tree Control uses an Excel-like syntax for formatting.
