DataGrid Sorting does not work

Hello,
I've a datagrid whose AllowSorting property is set to True. The datagrid is
bound to northwind table suppliers. I've handled the SortCommand event of the
datagrid control. But somehow the code is not working. The SortCommand event
handler is called, but the data shown in the grid is not sorted.

I've written the following code in the asp.net web appl.
private void Page_Load(objec t sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
if (!this.IsPostBa ck)
{
sqlDataAdapter1 .Fill(dataSet11 );
DataGrid1.DataS ource = dataSet11.Suppl iers;
DataGrid1.DataB ind();
}
}

private void DataGrid1_SortC ommand(object source,
DataGridSortCom mandEventArgs e)
{
sqlDataAdapter1 .Fill(dataSet11 );
DataView dv1 = new
DataView(dataSe t11.Suppliers," ",e.SortExpress ion,DataViewRow State.CurrentRo ws);
dv1.Sort = e.SortExpressio n.ToString();
dv1.ApplyDefaul tSort = false;
DataGrid1.DataS ource = dv1;
DataGrid1.DataM ember = "Suppliers" ;
DataGrid1.DataB ind();
}

Can anybody point out the problem? The sorting works if I change the
SelectCommand property of the dataset and fill the dataset again with the new
command with an 'order by' clause. But what's wrong with the dataview
approach that I've demonstrated above?

Hello
The problem has been solved
I'd done the data binding of grid in the designer. Instead I should have
used only dynamic binding. Once I removed the binding in the designer, it
started working

A different question this time. I have a DataGrid bound to a collection. Is there any way for me to allow sorting? The DataGrid.AllowSorting=true doesn't work, but that's probably because it can't assume the data types and thus can't sort them. I thought about implementing IComparable, but I don't see how that would work since it doesn't apply generically to all the fields/properties of the class. Thanks.

I've read about this issue in many articles across the net... But haven't found a solution. I see all kinds of custom code to perform sorting with datagrids, but my example is so simple, I must just be missing something. Basically, I have a .aspx page that is very simple and has a simple datagrid. All code is in the .cs page for the datagrid (hence, I'm doing all datagrid work programmatically). The datagrid is populated from a SQL table...

Hi, Using VB.NET. I have a datagrid having a strongly typed array of objects as its data source. The data from the array of objects is displayed by means of a table style, which is fine, but I cannot sort the data when I click on the column header. I have set the tablestype.allowsorting = true, but this has no effect.

I've a datagrid whose datasource is an arraylist object. The arraylist holds many instances of a specific class. I've two questions about this: 1 - Is there a way by which I can obtain a reference to the arraylist item the current row points to? 2 - Is it possible to sort the grid? Many thanks in advance.

I liked the DataGrid because I was familiar in walking through it to do custom filling and retrieval of data in cases where standard binding wouldn't do the job. I read somewhere that the object model is the same for the datagrid and the gridview. But as I begin to try to manually load a gridview I notice that there is no such thing as a GridViewItem as there was a DataGridItem. So, it's not the same. Are there any articles or...
