Datagrid sorting

Two Questions....

1. On the DataGrid, if you click on the column titles it will sort the data
on that column and put a little "arrow" to indicate that the grid is sorted
on that column. When I populate the grid, as the data it is already in a
pre-sorted order, can a do something to set the indicator to show this.

2. Is there a way of sorting the grid on multiple columns (and showing the
little arrows)

Thanks

Not sure about the first one - you can bind the grid to a DataView and set
the sort order for multiple columns via it's .Sort property.

I have a Windows Forms DataGrid that has a DataView as a datasource. My problem is that I want the datagrid to exhibit some special sorting properties when the header rows are clicked on. From reading round the newsgroups, it seems that a custom 'IComparer' is the answer, but I'm not quite sure how to do this. Really, how to get at the IComparer that the DataGrid/DataView uses for sorting. Can anyone point me towards a nice example...

Hi all, 1. I have a problem with cell selection in a table in a DataGrid. I dont want that anybody writes in the cells. That was not a problem I changed them to "read only", but if I am going to scroll the table up and down or from right to the left the content of the active cell will be selected as if for copy/paste. How can I deactivate such a behaviour?

Hi, I'm programatically sorting in a datagrid. When a column header is clicked, the sort happens twice for some reason, making it looks like it only sorts in descending order. I can tell it sorts twice because I inserted a messagebox in the dgMouse (MouseUp) event. Before ok is pressed, the table changes from the order it was loaded to ascending order. After ok is pressed, it goes to descending. The code is below. Any idea why...

I want my gird to sort only the items on the current page when I click on a column header. I wrote a little test app, but when I sort it pulls in items from other pages and places them on the current page. i.e. If I have: IntegerValue StringValue CurrencyValue 0 Item 0 0 1 Item 1 1.23

Hi, Using VB.NET. I have a datagrid having a strongly typed array of objects as its data source. The data from the array of objects is displayed by means of a table style, which is fine, but I cannot sort the data when I click on the column header. I have set the tablestype.allowsorting = true, but this has no effect.

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

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
