GridGroupingControl custom group sorting

[Stuart Hallows]

Using the GridGroupingContol, say I have three groups called 'Cheeses', 'Dogs' and 'Fruit', each group containing a number of records. These groups are displayed in alphabetical order. How can I control the display order of the groups to be non-alphabetical e.g. how to order the groups as
Dogs
Fruit
Cheeses

Can it be done?

Hi Stuart,

This can be achieved by having a custom comparer and specifying it to the particular GroupedColumn in GridTableDescriptor. This was shown in the sample code.

GridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.GroupedColumns[0].Comparer = new YourComparer();
GridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.GroupedColumns[0].Categorizer = new YourCategorizer();
