Datagrid sort

Das
Hi,
I'm using c# windows application & set the allowsort property to true. I
wanted to know. when user clicks the header of any column the data is sorted
by that column.

How can I know which is the last sorted field.....

I want to retrieve the currently selected row after the sort....
Thanks in advance...

Regards,

Das,

To get the last sorted field, you would have to handle the click event
for the column header (you can use the HitTest method on the datagrid to
find out if a column is clicked, and which one, I believe). You do this
^before^ you have the default implementation perform the sort.

What you would do in that handler is get the current DataView and find
out what column it is sorted on. Once you have that, you can call the base
implementation, and then get the new column that is being sorted on.

After that, you should be able to get the currently selected row through
the CurrentRowIndex property on the DataGrid itself (you can then use this
to get the row from the dataview that the grid is bound to).

Hope this helps.

I have a DataGrid on the left and TextBoxes (TB) on the right. The TB's reflect the contents of the grid cells. Sorting of columns (both thru VS and programmatically) work fine except, when the form/grid first opens up and the grid is immediately sorted the TB don't reflect the sorted data of the First row of the grid. Note: Initially the black grid indicator arrow points to the first row. If the user choses another row and then sorts...

I can not get my datagrid to page. I have a datagrid that I can sort 2 of the columns. This works great. I added paging and when I display the dg it shows 5 pages. (I am showing page numbers at the bottom of the dg.) When I click on the pages nothing happens until I get to the last page. Then and only then is the last page displayed. If I go back through the pages the second to last page displayes the first page again.

Is there a way to carry data that I have already read from the datagrid from page to page? I am looking at my Datagrid that I page through and when the user says get the next page, I have to go to the database to get the next page. Is there a way to use the dataset to allow us to read back and forth in it instead of going back to the database to get it? Thanks,

It was suggested that I re-submit this question as a new post rather than adding onto an old and unanswered post. The basic problem has to do with the .NET datagrid and sorting. I am having trouble getting the correct row of data from the datagrid immediately after re-sorting the datagrid. I am using the dataview for accessing the data and am using the following code as previously mentioned in a different post: Dim bm As...

I have an asp.net 1.1 C# web application with a datagrid. I set the datagrid's "AllowSorting" property to "True".

Then in the function that was created for me, I entered my code. Now, the datagrid will not sort. I planted a breakpoint on the first line of code...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
