I'm trying to sort multple colums in the DataGridView which is unbound. I would prefer to sort by using a DataTable/DataView but for some reason another developer in my team experienced other problems relating to sorting so he abandoned using the DataTable to fill the grid :(
Here is the senario: I want the user to be able to choose which columns they want sort on. The way I envisaged was to show a form with a listbox, a grid and 3 buttons (Add to sort, Remove from sort and Apply Sort).
The list box would be populated from the parent form grid column headings.
The grid will show the columns and sort direction.
Button 1 would add the selected item of the list box to the grid.
Button 2 would remove from the grid the selected row.
Button 3 would Apply the Sort in the order of the grid and the columns SortDirection.
Now I looked at How to: Customize Sorting in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control using the IComparer [URL]
how I can use the IComparer to sort on multiple columns that a user has specified or another way to sort on multiple columns using unbound data.
I'm having my program sort an excel sheet by a few columns. However, it is only sorting by the first column not the rest that I specify.ere is my sort code below:
I need to be able to sort a DGV image column by clicking on its header. I set the sort mode to automatic in the designer, but when I click on the header nothing happens. Are these columns sortable? If so, what do I need to do?
I have an unbound datagridview that I populate with data. When the user clicks on the column head the datagridview is sorted - which is fine for alphabetic fields but I have a column that contains numeric fields and goes from -100 to +100. This is sorted incorrectly by the number (all the 1s first then all the 2s and so on, ignoring the minus sign). How do I get it to sort my column numerically?
I have a datagridview with a column called "Total Price". This is set to a string value type because I need to always show 2 decimals. For example: 4,3 must be in the datagridviewcolumn: 4,30
So I use string.format for this. However, now I have a problem with sorting because the column is a string value type and numbers get sorted like this: 50 4000 40 300 30 20 10000 1 How to override the sort method or something that is called when a user clicks on the column header and the most effective way to sort it programmatically?
I have a DataTable in a DataGridView, one of the columns has data that I want sorted. I can click on the column header to sort it and it's fine. The problem is that I don't want that column sorted automatically when some of the data changes in it. I want it sorted only when I click on the header.
I have an unbound datagridview that has 2 columns. Both columns contain numeric data only and will only go to 55 in count. How do you sort a Datagridview Column in collating sequence? I basically want to sort from 55 down to 1 and 1 to 55 in their respective numerical order.
So I have a datagridview being populated with data from a database.At this point a user may or may not selected (via mouse click / key press) one or more rows within the datagridview.I need to (upon selection) create a new dataset, datatable and add rows with the some data from the said datagridview.
For example, if a table had nothing but names, e.g.
Joe Sean Larry Chris
Upon the user clicking, dragging a selection over Sean and Larry to add those names to a new dataset so I can pass it to another method for further processing.

Input array is longer than the number of columns in this table.It looks like I'm either missing a column declaration or adding the table to the set?
Two quick questions about datagridviews... I have an unbound dgv and I'm trying to do some simple formatting but sadly my .net knowledge is limited at best. I'm trying to make a balance sheet and I need to do two things:
1. How can I set row(d) to sum row(a:c) for each column (for multiple years of financials)
2. Is there anyway to not only make a row readonly, but make in unselectable (to skip totaled rows)?
Is there a way to sort a datagrid by one coloumn and then by another? For example by column 1 then by column 2. I have managed to sort it by a single column, however this doesnt give consistent results.
I have a text and numeric data in a column of excel. data is 1,2,3,A,B,C,D,10,11,12. I want to do sort these by SQL. and i want get data in below order 1,2,3,10,11,12,A,B,C,D.
At the moment I have a DataGridView (bindet to a DataTable) and some labels. If DataGridView's event SelectionChanged occurs,the labels should be filled with the information of the selected row -> No problems.But if I sort the DataGridView and click on a row, the informations in the labels are wrong.
Event:
Private Sub DGVMain_SelectionChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles DGVMain.SelectionChanged If DGVMain.SelectedRows.Count > 0 AndAlso Not Me.DGVMain Is Nothing Then[code].....
I want to sort the column that i higlighted in accending order.This is my code so far:
Dim FileContents() As String = IO.File.ReadAllLines(wirebot50) For Y As Integer = 0 To FileContents.GetUpperBound(0) If Not FileContents(Y).Trim = "" Then
[code]....
But this does not sorting anything. What is the wrong in the above code. And if i want to sort in decending order how to modify the code?
I have a problem with sorting this thing. I want to sort a column without changing the data in the other column. i have an attached document. A picture of my query and database..
I've got a datatable with a DateTime field that I want to sort using a DataView. I only need the Time part of the column though, and not the date. I can't get it to show just the time and not the date as long as its a DateTime column. I know I could convert it to a string to get the time, but then it wont sort correctly.
Dim sortingIndex As Integer = orderby Dim DataTableNew As DataTable = New DataTable DataTableNew = dt.Clone Dim query = (From c In dt.AsEnumerable Order By c.Field(Of String)(sortingIndex) Ascending) query.CopyToDataTable(DataTableNew, LoadOption.OverwriteChanges)
My problem is that with this method I always need (Of String) for it to work, so the date columns are also managed as Strings witch is the problem. Is there a way to use the correct type so the sorting is based on the type of the column?
I have a dataview object that is being populated by database fields - so I can sort on these partulular columns by specifying the actual column names without any difficulty. However, I have been asked to add a few more columns to the dataview, and these columns will be calculated columns, not directly derived from an underlying database column.The users want to be able to sort on these new columns as well - even though there is no actual column name I can use to sort.
I have not been able to see where I can sort a dataview based on the actual column integer value used when the user clicks the appropriate heading to sort.

i want to sort the above column inorder that, all the line contain Twst will come first then blue, red and finaly black. This is my code so far
Sub coloursort() Dim lines() As String = File.ReadAllLines(TextBox1.Text) For Y As Integer = 0 To lines.GetUpperBound(0)
[code]....
But the above code replace the line with 1,2,3,4 or 5. According to select case statement. How to modify the above code so that it sort the lines?
I've got three arraylists of strings, and the "091: " part of the string is not part in the arraylist, thats added when I display them in the listboxes. So basically, how can I sort a list, and make sure that item nr 98 in english, still equals nr 98 in japanese and kanji?
I need to sort a DataTable or DataGridView by a column that is a string value, but with null/empty values at the BOTTOM when sorting ASCENDING. The DataTable is NOT populated by a SQL statement, so no order by. If I do
I need to sort a DataTable or DataGridView by a column that is a string value, but with null/empty values at the BOTTOM when sorting ASCENDING.The DataTable is NOT populated by a SQL statement, so no order by.If I doDataGridView1.Sort(New RowComparer(System.ComponentModel.ListSortDirection.Ascending))then it throws an exception, saying that the DataGridView is DataBound, which is correct, but doesn't help me, and I want to keep it databound.
