Public NotInheritable Class OrFilterExpression 
   Inherits FilterExpressionOperator

Dim instance As OrFilterExpression

[DebuggerDisplayAttribute(Value="FilterBy = {DebuggerDisplayString}", 
   Name="", 
   Type="",

Remarks

Once the filter expression has been created, it is considered "frozen" and its values can no longer be modified.
