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 have two text files, the first text file has two columns separated by a space (" ") and the second text file only has one column.
The column 1 in text file 1 and text file 2 match albeit in different order, what I'm trying to achieve is for every field in column 1 text file 2 I want to search for column 1 in text file 1 and display the matching column 2 field in column 2 text file 2.
Dim*OpenTextFile*As*String*= IO.Path.Combine("C:Test1.txt")
Dim*OpenTextFile2*As*String*= IO.Path.Combine("C:Test2.txt")
Dim*SaveTextFile*As*String*= IO.Path.Combine("C:Test2.txt")

I have ASP gridview bound to an Entity Data source which works no problem, however when I try to programmatically change a header columns text, it appears to break the styling and will not allow sorting either, below is how I am trapping and changing the Header row column text.
Protected Sub gv1_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles gv1.RowDataBound
If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.Header Then
'retrieve the values from the userdeftable
e.Row.Cells(6).Text = App.Session.Company.UserDef3
End If
End Sub

Ok so I know that you can sort by using a bunch of different sorting algorithms but I just am not sure how to start this off. I have written this code and just want to know if you can even sort this.
The program takes the users information in from text boxes from another part of the program and writes the information into a text file. So when the user clicks on this button it will display all the people that have entered in their names. I want to sort their last names alphabetticaly.
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnListCustomers.Click

I know similiar question have been asked but they are a little different so here I go. Basically I have a game in which the user enters their name and they get a score. This name and score then get recorded when they end the game as follows:
Dim userdataSW As New StreamWriter("E:GameScores.txt", True)
strline = frmVictory.TempPlayerName & "," & frmVictory.TempPlayerScore
userdataSW.WriteLine(strline)
userdataSW.Close()
userdataSW.Dispose()
What I then need to do is sort these values in the text file from largest to smallest (based on the number not the name but I still want the name to be assosiated with that score) so I can have the top 10 scores appear in a hall of fame type thing.

I am doing an assignment for my intermediate programming class. It is due tonight at 730. Anyways, I am almost finished, but I have run into a snag. I have this "bank application" and we are storing the info in a text file. However, whenever there is a deposit or withdrawal, the "accounts.txt" file is to be updated. All of the new account info is being written to a "Temp.txt" file and eventually will be renamed to the new "Accounts.txt" file. The problem I'm having is that it isn't writing non-updated account info to the temp file and I don't know how to make it do that while keeping the accounts in order and not rewriting the same account info more than once.
Here is the code for the entire project so far:
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Private Sub btnProcess_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnProcess.Click
lstDisplay.Items.Clear()

I have been trying to create an application that will read in the contents of a text file, sort the contents, add together any similar Client-Matter codes (based on the first two field values) and then create a new text file with the summarized results. [code]The first two fields can be treated as one field for sorting purposes. The two 403049,000017 lines would add together the last field, and use the most recent date in the newly created file.For some reason, I can not get the new file with the results created. I added messageboxes throughout the code to see where I am going wrong - they tell me where the program is going. They seem to point to me that everything is working but still, no export file.[code]

I'm using Visual Basic Express 2008 and I need to upload and sort two data text files (notepad) in a listview box. It doesn't have to be a listview box I chose that because it has nice options for columns. Anyway I've got the code set up to open the dialog box and allow the upload of multiple files. I've also got it set up to show separate columns, movie titles and box office amounts, titles in one file box office amount in the other. What I nee sorting the data once it's uploaded so the movie titles show in one column and the box office amounts show in another. Currently everything is showing in the left most column. I'd like to be able to represent the data seperately also so I can format the dollar amounts into currency. Here's what I've got so far:
Private Sub LoadButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles LoadButton.Click
Dim DialogBoxResults As System.Windows.Forms.OpenFileDialog

I've this txt file (almost 60 MiB)
[Code]...
Every line starts with 56000 then the first key, the the second key and the rest of the line. I tried to use SORT, that's included with Windows. It does a pretty nice job, but i need to have my own function in case SORT is not available. The output should write 560001002001 at first.

I have managed to access and read a specific file line by line. If I wanted to split information by a comma or space and then sort alphabetically or numerically, how would I go about this procedure? Would I create a loop within the reading loop to parse the information?
Dim file As String = "C:Users est.txt"
Dim Line As String
If System.IO.File.Exists(file) = True Then

I am using a list to keep track of a number of custom Row objects as follows:
Public Rows As List(Of Row)()
Row has 2 properties, Key (a String) and Cells (an ArrayList).
I need to be able to sort each Row within Rows based on a developer defined index of the Cells ArrayList.
So for example based on the following Rows
Row1.Cells = ("b", "12")
Row2.Cells = ("a", "23")
Rows.Sort(0) would result in Row2 being first in the Rows list. What would be the best way of going about implementing this?

I have a list of collection of points on the screen. I want to order them based on their distance from a seperate, independent point. What's working is I have a function GetDistance which does the dirty pythagorian work of returning the distance between two points.
'Create the set point from which to start all measurements from (startpoint)
dim SetPoint as new Point(200,200)
'Create a list to hold arbitrary points to test (endpoints)
dim ListOfPoints as new list(of point)

I'm writing a help application for the Customer support team at my company to help agents ask better questions when customers report problems. In it, I've got a SQL database that contains all the products, topics, and questions. The layout is similar to the following:
Products Table:
Product_ID Product Name:
Topics Table:
Topic_ID Product_ID Topic
[code]....
I don't know if I'm making myself clear, but I basically need to do the equivalent to the following SQL statement: "SELECT PRODUCT_ID FROM Products WHERE PRODUCT_Name = LstProducts.SelectedValue"

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 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?
