GridView.Sort question

Hi,

If I call GridView.Sort(" MyColumn1, MyColumn2", SortDirection.D escending), I
assume that the sort order will be equivalent to the SQL statement "...ORDER
BY MyColumn2 DESC, MyColumn1 DESC". Is my assumption correct?

Is there a way to call GridView.Sort and have the sort order be equivalent
to the SQL statement "...ORDER BY MyColumn1 DESC, MyColumn2 ASC (instead of
DESC)"?

Thanks in advance.

Ok, I've gotten somewhat handy with the new GridView. And I have it bound to a business object datasource, via the ObjectDataSource. Lets say I have 3 databound columns EmpID, LastName,FirstName I have it working where.... If I click the Header, that it will sort based on the Header I click. I even have DESC working if they click the same column header twice.

I'm getting an error in the following scenario. - A GridView control is bound to an SQLDataSource. - The user selects a column for sorting. - Some time later in code the column used for sorting is removed and the SelectCommand SQL changed so that the field is not returned. - When the GridView is redisplayed an error occurs because the GridView.SortExpression is no longer a valid column. The SortExpression property of the GridView...

I have a GridView control that I want to sort on multiple columns when I click a particular column. For example, I display Last name + ", " + First name in the first column and display id in the second column. When clicking on the first column, I want the GridView to sort on LastName and FirstName. Based on Microsoft's documentation of SortExpression property, all I have to do is to set SortExpression=LastName,FirstName on the first column....

I want to know how to make a clickable button or Command field on a GridView, and have the user's action a) fire a function and b) pass a data value from one of the GridView's columns to that function. Long version: ASP.NET's usual paradigm with master-detail editing is to have you define a commandfield, and on your detail view to define a second datasource that uses the SelectedValue of the GridView to determine what the detail record...

Hi all, I'm a newbie to Atlas (and recently ASP.NET) after coming from a long Java background, also have done quite a bit with an Ajax.NET/ASP.NET 1.1 project, but it was basically all javascript, nothing really having to do with ASP.NET... I'm attempting to put together an application that consists of several GridView controls each bound to some xml data. Each table exists in its own update panel. The two effects I'm going for are:

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
