Sorting in GridDataBoundGrid - again

[Rasmus Fynbo]

I know there''s another thread regarding this question, but it doesn''t bring up a solution..

When setting the
DataGrid.SortBehavior = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSortBehavior.SingleClick

nothing happens.. in my extremely simple grid.. I expected to see those small arrows in the columnheaders... What I am supposed to do to get something as straightforward as sorting grids to work??

Hi Rasmus,

Is it possible to upload a sample that shows the problem? Which version do you use?

My example couldn''t be more simple.. it''s a simple databoundgrid and the sortingBehavior in the designer is as default set to DoubleClick.. >Which version do you use? 3.0.1.0 > >Regards, >Thomas SortingGridTest_1545.zip

Hi Rasmus

An ArrayList as datasource does not support sorting, you need to add a DataTable or DataView, because the sorting is made on the DataTable.DefaultView.Sort or DataView.Sort property.

I''m also using a GDBG, but it is bound to an IBindingList populated with IEditableObjects. What is the easist way to implement sorting? Do you have any examples of how to implement sorting in an IBindingList?

thanks!

Hi Eric, If your GridDataBoundGrid is bound to some IBindingList collection and you want your GridDataBoundGrid to support sorting , you will have to implement the IBindingList.AllowSorting property and the IBindingList.ApplySort method (in addition to the other interface members). Refer to Sample. Refer this forum for sorting the ArrayList http://www.syncfusion.com/support/forums/message.aspx?MessageID=38413 Let me know, for futher assistance. Best Regards, Madhan.
