.NET Forum / Windows Forms / WinForm General / May 2006SortCompare of DataGridView - how to?
VS2005 and I have a DataTable displayed in a DataGridView that needs custom sorting, with the DataSource of the grid set to the DataTable and the SortCompare event just won't fire. Then I found this in the docs "This event occurs only when the DataSource property is not set and the VirtualMode property value is false" This seems really odd but may be true. I can't see what the purpose of this event is then, how else will one use the DataGridView other than setting the DataSource to something? How else to do the custom sorting when the user clicks a column header is also welcome. Thanks. Chris, It fires when the datagridview is not bound to a datasource and virtual mode is set to false.

Hi Ken, thanks for the quick response. If you have it working, then I need more assistance please. I've seen it in the docs, but what the heck does "is not bound to a datasource" mean? In my case I have a typed DataSet dataset obtained with a Web service call, and sets the DataSource of the grid to be the DataTable in the dataset. Does this cause the event not to fire? As mentioned, this seems really odd. Is there another way of displaying the table in the grid other than setting the datasource to the table so the event will fire? I've tried the VirtualMode property in both its flavors and read all 3 pages of links coming back with Google searching for DataGridView SortCompare. > Chris, > [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] >> >> Thanks. Hi, Not bound to a datasource means that you add the columns and cell values manually. Here is a link to an example. http://www.onteorasoftware.com/blog.aspx?BlogID=2 Ken ------------------------------ > Hi Ken, thanks for the quick response.
