Sorting grid from collection

I'm binding a DataGrid to a class which I've inherited from CollectionBase.
This works like a dream, simply by going:
MyGrid.DataSource = MyCollectionClass;
MyGrid.DataBind;

However, I'm used to binding DataGrids to a DataView and then setting the
DataView's Sort property to a sort string. How can I replicate this sorting
functionality while using a CollectionBase instead of a DataView?
