sorting columns using a hierarchical GDBG

Hi, I am representing my hierarchical data with a GDBG. The goal is similar to that of the VirtTreeGrid sample, except I''ve used the GDBG control to manage the hierarchy rather than the basic Grid control. What I want to do: I''d like to sort the 2nd level hierarchy columns when the user clicks on the top level column headers (2nd and 3rd level column headers are hidden). I *think* this can be done in a manner similar to the CustomGridCell sorting sample I''ve seen posted elsewhere in this forum. That sample uses just a plain grid control, but uses the QueryCellInfo event to populate cells with data sorted in a seperate structure. My question: Is this also practical solution for the GDBG control? Thanks, Nick

Hi Nick, This is not directly supported in a GridDataBoundGrid (it is supported using a GridGroupingControl). You will have to handle this yourself. There is a solution discussed in below forum thread. Here is a link. http://www.syncfusion.com/Support/Forums/message.aspx?MessageID=9239. Please refer this forum thread for VirtTreeGrid sorting. http://www.syncfusion.com/Support/Forums/message.aspx?MessageID=44006 Let me know if this helps, Best Regards, Haneef
