DataGrid Sort

[Ladyhawk]

Is there any way to programmatically sort a column in a datagrid?

If you bind the datagrid to a dataview you can sort the dataview. Might be an option if you cant find any other way.

Ladyhawk,

are you trying to sort a windows datagrid in some special way more specific than the click to sort thingy?

I wanted to programmatically initiate the "click to sort thingy".

Ladyhawk...I am still confused a bit. are you saying that some event would do the sort or are you saying that the page would load then sort automatically?

Yes it is possible
try this:
-let's say that ds.tables(0) is yours grid dataSource
-the name of the column you want to sort is "Column"
ds.Tables(o).DefaultView.sort= "Column"
grid1.DataSource = ds.Tables(0).DefaultView
