Description

This method will set the string value of the Data property of McDBNodes returned by this McDBQuery. The Data property may be either a string or an object; this method allows query on the value of those objects with Data properties that are stored as strings. It also allows determination of which objects have Data properties stored as strings (versus objects).

Return Type
