Remarks

Users can filter data using the Pop-up Filter Menus or Automatic Filtering Row. The FilterMode property specifies how to filter data:

Value – the pop-up filter menu contains unique actual values. When a user applies a filter using the auto-filter row, the query should be entered without formatting characters.
DisplayText – the pop-up menu contains unique displayed texts. When a user applies a filter using the auto-filter row, the query should match the displayed text completely (if necessary, contain formatting characters).

To filter non-string column values with string operators (“Contains”, “Starts With”, and others), set FilterMode to DisplayText. This approach is also applicable to other Devexpress data-aware controls (Gantt Control, Data Grid, Vertical Grid, etc.).
