I have a range in excel and I want to be able to sort it by one column programmatically.
There is range.sort, but it has a ridiculous about of parameters and I cannot get it to work.
Surely there must be something to be able say I want this data to be sorted by this column?
I am reading an Excel file into VB.NET. There are 4 columns containing dollar figures of varying amounts. Here is what I need to do is identify the columns with the highest $ figure, the next highest, etc. and mark them so that .NET can identify them (e.g. col3 is highest so rank1 variable is "col3" and so on).So I am dealing with Excel Ojects which is new to me and sorting which is new to me. If it helps, here is how I am reading in the Excel file:
xlsWorkBook = xlsApp.Workbooks.Open(folders(f).ToString & "" & fileInFolder.ToString)
xlsWorkSheet = xlsWorkBook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
Dim ColumnNumber As Integer = xlsWorkSheet.Cells(1, StartColumn).Column

this code was not done by me originally and there are some thigns here i dont quite understand i have altered it a bit from my coworkers code to suit my data and it works. but too slow. and when i have 4000+kb excel files it might freeze altogether. ( I have checked tho that when and after this transposer runs it will still be within the excel row limit, i had done calculations before and made a macro to automatically split excel files based on number of columns and rows to make sure this is so ). This code seems to start out fast then goes slower the longer it runs. at least this is what it seems liek to me.

So im currently making a program, basicly i want the user to put in a certain code into a text box, then when they hit the button, visual basic opens the excel spreadsheet, and seaches for the code the put it, so i have this excel sheet that has like a billioncodes and the names of the codes, so the names of the codes are in column a, and the codes are in column b, i want vb to open the spreadsheet, search through column b from top to bottom, then close the spreadsheet, and put the name of the code from column a into a label so the user can see. and possibly pop up with an error box if it doesnt find the code.
View 2 RepliesIt seems that on clicking datagridview column header, the column will be automatically sorted based on the column type. I have a column showing some numbers. If column type is string, it sorts "1","20","3" into "1","20","3". If column type is double, it sorts into "1","3","20" which is the result that I want. However, there might be some erros in the numbers and error messages(text) will show in the cell instead of numbers. So I cannot set the column type as double. I want to ignore these error messages and sort all the numbers. How can I do this?
Also, I need to add some background colors to different rows in datagridview. So in the column header click event, I call the bkgColor Sub to achieve this. My question is that how can I override the sorting method in this event?
Private Sub DataGridView1_ColumnHeaderMouseClick(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellMouseEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.ColumnHeaderMouseClick

I have coded my program so that when a user clicks on a column, the data is sorted in ascending/descending order.When I go to click on a column header, however, nothing actually happens.I dont get an error or anything.Here is the code that I am using to sort the records in the GridView:
Property GridViewSortDirection() As SortDirection

Is it possible, out of the box, to sort a .NET DataGridView column using only the keyboard?I understand there is a SelectionMode property, but changing this merely allows me to select, using Shift+Space, an entire row or column, but this doesn't have the same effect as clicking the header with the mouse and causing a sort.The reason I ask is because I am working on accessibility issues and would like to avoid relying on the mouse.
View 3 RepliesDim array1(9,2) as String
So basically, 10 rows and 3 columns and say I want to sort them by the values in the 3rd column.
Each row is essentially a record of data and must be kept together.
Now I know that you can't use the array.sort method but would I have to use a bubble sort or something for this?
What's a good way to manipulate the records while still keeping each row linked together somehow.
I'm trying to put the names of all my column's (that are in my datagridview) in order by their displayIndex property in an arraylist.

I support a .Net 2.0 Windows application that has a custom listview control to allow for greater flexibility. I am not allowed to bring this to a newer version of the gramework until next year. We are moving from XP to Windows 7, and we have identified an issue with how the column sort image (up/down arrow) is drawn to the listview. Currently in XP, the image is drawn to the right of the column's text. However, in Windows 7, I am getting Access Violation Exceptions. Now, I know that the error is with the improper handling of memory using the unmanaged code as shown below. I am looking for a method to mimic what we have below in a safe manner using managed code.

i have a GridView bound to a DataView. Some columns in the DataView's table are foreignkeys to related tables(f.e. Customer). I want to enable sorting for these columns too, but all i can do is sorting the foreignkey(fiCustomer) and not the CustomerName.
I have tried this without success(" Cannot find column ERP_Customer.CustomerName "):
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Customer" SortExpression="ERP_Customer.CustomerName" >
A tried also the DataViewManager, but i've a problem to detect the table to sort:
Dim daCharge As New ERPModel.dsERPTableAdapters.ERP_ChargeTableAdapter
daCharge.Fill(dsERP.ERP_Charge)
Dim viewManager As New DataViewManager(Me.dsERP)

I created a DataGrid by dropping a DataSource on my Form. When I run it in debug, it works great.
My question is:
When I click on a column to sort by, ascending or descending, how can I tell which column was clicked on, and whether it is ascending or descending?
how we can sort a listview by a column without click event?

Dim query = From c In dt.AsEnumerable _
Order By c.Field(Of DateTime?)("LastPurchaseDate"), _
