Sort Gridview by columns

[keithb]

I have a working ASP.NET 2.0 application that uses a GridView control. How
can I enable the feature that allows a user to click on a column heading and
sort the contents by the information in that column?

Thanks,

Keith

Hi Keith,

Your problem is probably more complex than this, but for starters... When
you set the GridView's allowsorting property to True, does sorting come on?

<asp:gridview id="GridView1" runat="server" allowsorting="True">

Could you show us the code that isn't working?
