How to disable the DataGridView sorting?

I'm using a DataGridView on a Form. I want to disable the clicking on the
columns headers to disallow the sorting.

How can I do that, but without deriving the DataGridView?

Is there any other way to disable the sorting of the DataGridView without
deriving it?

Thanks

You can turn this off an a column-by-column basis by using .SortMode

I thought the only thing I had to do to disable column sorting in VB.NET was to set datagrid.AllowSorting = False. Unfortunately this has never worked for me. I discovered another set of code that seems to work for 99% of the cases where I need to disable datagrid column sorting: Private Sub datagrid_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles datagrid.MouseDown Dim pt As New Point(e.X,...

I have a class that among others exposes a string property "Date". The date in this property is stored in the form yyyymmdd. Now I do the following 1) Generate a DataGridViewTextBoxColumn column for that property 2) Add the column to the datagridview 3) Populate a BindingSource by adding all instances of the above mentioned class. 4) Assign the BindingSource to the datagridview's DataSource property

I have been searching all over the web for a way to sort a DataGridView based on the actual text being shown in a ComboBox column as opposed to the underlying value (an ID in this case). Can anyone tell me if this is even possible, and if so, how to do it? If this is completely impossible, how would you suggest going about sorting a ComboBox wherein the text displayed in the column is the client's name, and the underlying value is an ID? ...

Does anyone know how to disable sorting in a datagridview? I mean, when a user clicks a column header, the rows should not reorder.

Hello all, I can usually find solutions to my .NET problems by searching these groups, but I'm stumped on this one. I have a datagrid in VB.NET (2.0 framework). I want to disable sorting on the first column in the grid only. I havent found a way to reliably do this yet. I tried putting the following code in the datagrid's mouse down event Dim hti As DataGrid.HitTestInfo

On my form I have a datagridview that's bound to a table on my DB. When I run the app then click on a column header to sort, it sorts just fine. But my problem is a result of that sort. Even though the view has been sorted, it's underlying data isn't. After sorting I'm trying to get the datarow I just doubleclicked on. The problem is it's returning the pre sorted row. That is, the row that was there before I sorted the column. Dim...

I am having trouble determining when my DataGridView object is sorting (based on a column header click). The idea is, in a large table, sorting the columns takes time, so I show a splash screen. When it is done sorting I want the splash screen dissapear. What I had been doing was using the CellClick and Sorted events: private void myDGV_CellClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e) { if (e.RowIndex == -1) {//sorting

OK, this is rediculous... Surely, sorting should be one of the easiest things with the ASP.NET DataGridView control. I mean, there's hundreds of sites out there (Microsoft MSDN entries included) which explain and give examples of the DataGridView sorting and how to make it work... SO WHY CAN'T I GET IT TO WORK?! Dammit! Apologies for the rant. I'll try and keep it to the point from here on in: I have tried the following:

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