ok i have a project which has many gridview in its pages... now i am sorting the fridveiw using the sorting function like this:
protected void GridView1_Sorting(object sender, GridViewSortEventArgs e)
{
DataTable dt = Session["TaskTable2"] as DataTable;
if (dt != null)
[Code].....
and i get view state error...
is here a way to put this entire thing in the class... because it is getting repeated everywhere...
Moderators Note: THIS ISSUE IS BIG FOR ME AND EVEN IF POSSIBLE, GET THE REPLY FROM THE DESIGNER OF GRIDVIEW. I have been looking for him for long. I am really fed up with reviewing a good lot of web pages on how we can possibly customize the gridview to enable sorting and paging. So many sites have listed out a lot of information and so many guidances. But the problem is that one works out fine and the other is a burden. I really feel bad about being given the job of customizing this kind of a gridview which has no user friendly approach to it. Also, this control is rendered without the pager links inside the <tfoot> tag. I have tried the Pear Pager in php. It is that good and easy to use and compared to that, the gridview in asp.net is the worst ever control i have ever tried so far.
1. i can use the images to indicate the sorting direction
2. I can have the custom pager like
[code]
<<Previous 1 2 3 .. 7 Next >>.
[/code]
When i click the next when i am viewing the page at 3 , the pager links should change as
[code]
<<Previous 2 3 4 .. 7 Next >>
[/code]
Kindly look into this type of requirement and firstly tell me whether this is possible with the gridview control. I would like this request even to be escalated to the designers of the gridview control also, so that Microsoft comes out with a reply THAT WORKS and not the kind of stuff like surfing through a lot of links and pages and finally wasting a lot of days precious time and still breaking the head with this useless control. I have spent a lot of time in searching for a perfect way. Not writing a code that is non-standard. I am really serious b'cos I have spent weeks in customizing this control. If I dont get a solid reply atleast now, I am going to generate all the output by HTML content by custom coding.
I got a web page, it has a tabcontainer, within each tab, there will be a gridview, all the tabs and gridview are created at run-time, i have only one code, that I will loop through to create all those tabs and gridview. When I apply the sorting, and I click on the column name on any grid, it returned an error saying index was out of bound. BUT, when there is only ONE grid view created, it is working fine, I suspect it mixed up all the grid view's id and so on. But I have assigned different ID to gridview

that aspx page contains gridview that contain one more gridview inside in it.Now i want to sort out both the grid i.e)claimgrid and Gdclmline1 i want code in c#.
I'm trying to extend the GridView control to enable sorting and paging for any situation.
When using my control I am fetching data from a database and filling a DataSet with it, then binding the GridView upon every page load. My first question would be, is this the correct approach?
To sort the GridView I am overriding the OnSorting method which stores the sort expression and direction in the ViewState, then creates a DataView and utalises the Sort method to sort the underlying data. It then sets the Data Source to this DataView and rebinds the GridView.
Paging is handled by OnPageIndexChanging which simply sets the PageIndex property and again rebinds the GridView.
My problem is; when any control causes a postback my GridView is no longer sorted, presumably because it is persistently rebound. If I don't rebind it then the GridView is empty on postback since the data isn't automatically stored in the ViewState. I have considered saving the data source in the ViewState but I would assume that this is bad practice for large amounts of data? - also DataViews are not seralisable.
The only solution I can think of currently is to override OnDataBound and sort the data every time. This results in a double sort when paging triggers a postback which seems inefficient. Code illustration of this below,
[Code]....
I'm looking for the cleanest 'best practice' solution as this is a learning exercise more than anything else.
I have a web application (with C#). I have a GridView and want to be able to sort its contents. I have added the tags
AllowSorting="True"
onsorting="MyGridView_Sorting">
asp:BoundField DataField="NAME" HeaderText="Name" SortExpression="NAME"
inside the GridView. I have implemented the MyGridView_Sorting method. Thing is: it does not work. Does nothing. The header text "Name" looks like an active link, but clicking produces no effect. Putting a break point inside MyGridView_Sorting shows that it actually never goes inside the function. What is wrong? What do I miss?
[Code]....
I have a gridview and I allowed sorting. But when I run my application I click on the first column to sort it. But I get this error: "The GridView 'gvOutlookMeldingen' fired event Sorting which wasn't handled."

since yround 8 hours I search the whole web for simple sorting in gridViews.I tried around 20 HowTos and Examples but it doesn't work.here is my code
[code]...
When "AllowSorting" is true on an asp.net GridView, it just makes the headers with a SortExpression clickable. Trouble is that it does this with JavaScript links - so with JS turned off you cannot sort the columns. Before I go and write my own HeaderTemplate to use Querystrings instead of JavaScript, am I missing an easier way of being able to sort a GridView without any relyance upon JavaScript?
View 1 RepliesI have done research on how to manually create sorting in a grid-view and none of it is thorough enough for me to follow. I need more of a step by step solution, like what event should my sorting code go in, how would i enable the headers to allow sorting. normally, i just have .net do this but for some reason this time it doesn't allow it, maybe because i am not using a datasource.
that's my code that creates a datable and then binds to the gridview.

I have a method
[code]....
and it's starting to smell, bad. I have 4 columns that I have to sort on. I'd like to avoid doing a switch or something to determine which property on the CustomerSet I'm trying to order. What would a better programmer do to associate the SortExpression, which is a string, to the property on one of my CustomerSet objects?
I have a grid bound to a linqed SP thus:
Session["results"] = db.spGetCaseByNumberOrSurname(txtCaseNum.Text.Trim(), null).ToList();
gvResults.DataSource = Session["results"];
on the sorting of it, i would like to be able to do this..
protected void gvResults_Sorting(object sender, GridViewSortEventArgs e)
{
string sortExpression = e.SortExpression;
List<spGetCaseByNumberOrSurnameResult> data = Session["results"] as List<spGetCaseByNumberOrSurnameResult>;
if (sd == SortDirection.Ascending)
{
sd = SortDirection.Descending;
gvResults.DataSource = data.OrderBy(d => d.GetType().GetProperty(sortExpression));
}
else
{
sd = SortDirection.Ascending;
gvResults.DataSource = data.OrderByDescending(d => d.GetType().GetProperty(sortExpression));
}
gvResults.DataBind();
}
sadly that doesnt do any sorting at all..it in fact errors with "The data source does not support server-side data paging."
In grid view we have option by default as sorting and paging. if i disabled those two textboxes by pro grammatically i need to get that feature.

I have a gridview which is bound to a DataTable. When I try to sort the gridview, it goes blank. How can I enable sorting this gridview? I know this question has been asked before, but what I'm looking for is an explanation of how to do it. Perhaps with a simple example.
I have read that I need to put some code in the on_sorting and/or on_sorted events, but I don't understand what needs to go there. Again, I want to understand the method of accomplishing this, I don't just want a giant block of 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:
[code].....
I have to apply the sort on a distinct table of the DataViewManager, but this table would differ on the related tables.
I have bound the TemplateColumns in Codebehind in RowDataBound-Event f.e.:
Dim LblCustomer As Label = DirectCast(e.Row.FindControl("LblCustomer"), Label)
LblCustomer.Text = drCharge.ERP_CustomerRow.CustomerName 'drCharge inherits DataRow
What is the recommended way to sort a GridView on columns related to other tables? I could build a custom datatable with the customername instead of the foreignkey and bind this column to the TemplateField. But then my huge dataset in the model makes no sense anymore.
EDIT: I have a model with a Dataset. I'm binding one Datatable(ERP_Charge) from it to my GridView(actually i take a Dataview from that Table). In this Datatable are columns that are related to other Datatables in the Dataset(relations are defined). When i want to make the grid sortable its no problem on the columns that belong to ERP_Charge.
But the columns with foreign keys to other table could not be sorted because the Gridview shows f.e. not the CustomerID but the Customername. I get the Customername in RowDataBound. Normally i would join the tables and add a Datacolumn for the Customername.
