Filters Binding (for Report Chapters based on Report Data Views)
A filter enables to restrict a Report DataSet column values, which are considered in the report. This Report DataSet column is not necessarily part of the report.
Filters Binding enables to feed a filter content with another filter content. Both filters must be of the same type.
To do so you need to create a binding object.
