Discussion

A manual level is not associated with a source value. Instead, you create it manually as an intermediate level used to group large numbers of child categories, or to group categories based on an attribute that is different from any found in your data sources.

For example, if you have data source columns for state and city, you can create a manual level and the necessary categories to group the cities by geographic region rather than by state or province.

Manual levels have no directly associated source column and usually connect to child categories.

A value of True indicates a manual level. A value of False indicates a source level.

A COM exception is thrown in error situations. The message that is passed with the exception varies depending on the error situation.
