GridGroupingControl - GroupSortOrder

[Clive Hill]

Hi,

I am not displaying my group drop area, and therefore cannot double click on this to change the direction of the group sorting.

How can I change this programmatically from ascending to descending? There didn''t seem to be an obvious property for this.

Thanks.

Hi Vito,

you need to use the TableDescriptor.GroupedColumns collection for adding the new group with sort direction/ changing the existing group sort direction. Here is a code snippet.

//For adding the Group with sort direction.
this.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.GroupedColumns.Add("parentID",ListSortDirection.Descending);

//For changing the Sort Direction of the Existing Group.
this.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.GroupedColumns["parentID"].SortDirection = ListSortDirection.Ascending;

Let me know if this helps.
