Sorting Gridview Bound To Datatable In C#.net?

Sep 28, 2010

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.

C# - Sorting Gridview Bound To Linq SP

Oct 22, 2010

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."

Forms Data Controls :: Gridview (bound By ObjectDataSource) Sorting

Aug 31, 2010

I have a gridview being data bound by an objectdatasource which points to a BLL/DAL. I have paging and sorting enabled within the gridview. I have the fields configured in the look/fell I want from a templatefield. This templatefield has the sort expression (date) I want things to be sorted by. All this works as it should and I have no issues with it.But, the issue is that when I click on the header to sort asc/desc by date, I have to click on it twice for it switch to descending order. E.g. I hit the webpage and it lists all the information in the gridview, sorted by date, ascending order. If I want to sort by descending order, I have to click the date header twice in order for the gridview to sort the information in descending order; the clicks cause a post-back and the whole screen is refreshed.

VS 2008 DetailsView And GridView Bound To A DataTable

Mar 2, 2011

I'm hacking my way through ASP.Net WebForms, coming from VB.Net WinForms. I was hoping the transition would've been more seamless... it is not.

I have a GridView (Paging enabled) bound to a DataTable, filled with Joined tables from an Access 2000 DataBase.

The GridView and DetailsView are bound to the same DataTable.

In the GridView's SelectedIndexChanged Event I have the following:

vb.net Code:

' dtvSelected is the DetailsView' dgvJobTOF is the GridView Me.dtvSelected.PageIndex = Me.dgvJobTOF.SelectedIndex

When the page loads the first item in the GridView is also displayed in the DetailsView.

I've added a "Select" button in the GridView and when it is clicked the Data in the DetailsView remains the same regardless of the selected GridView row.

DataBinding Method:

vb.net Code:

Forms Data Controls :: Display Hyperlink In Gridview Bound From Datatable

Feb 11, 2010

I have a gridView which is populated with the code below. This is working perfectly except for one issue. In the "Region" column, I need for each region name to be a hyperlink. If I set the row code to dr(0) = "<a href='table_display.aspx?IO_ID=" & objDataReader("IO_ID") & "'>" & objDataReader("Region") & "</a>" it actually displays the entire string of text from "<a href..." through "</a>", but not as a hyperlink. I have read in many places to manually put a hyperlink field in the aspx page, but I would really prefer to do this programmatically in the code-behind.

Forms Data Controls :: Gridview Bound To DataTable - How To Enable CheckBox Column

Jul 16, 2010

Below is the code behind for a simple aspx page. The web form contains one GridView (GridView1) and one label (Label1). I create a Data Table, then add a row to the table. I then DataBind my GridView to the DataTable. (so far so good) When I run the page I do see the GridView and the single row of data. However the checkbox shown is not enabled, meaning the user cannot uncheck or check it. (As if was not enabled)

Forms Data Controls :: Way To Manually Setting Up Gridview Fields And Sorting Using Datatable

Mar 20, 2011

I have a need to call Oracle stored procs to populate a gridview. I'm able to call one stored proc to get the column header text and another one to get the corresponding data. Currently I'm using a datareader, but I want my gridview to have sorting and paging enabled, so likely I'll need to read the data into a datatable and then bind the gridview to it.I've never had to manually configure a gridview - usually just use autoformatting.1. Do I essentially set up the columns manually in the gridview since it has no data to go off of in design mode? I'm guessing most of these will be Bound fields. A few of my columns are going to display date values that need to be formatted a certain way
and one column will be a link that needs to call a second method to populate a different grid. I'm not sure what the syntax for this is.

DataSource Controls :: Sorting A ListView Bound To LinqDataSource Based On Child Object?

Jul 22, 2010

This was a pretty disappointing moment - when databinding, using Eval("Contact.LastName") would work. It nicely evaluates the related Linq object's member LastName. If the "Contact" object is null, no error is thrown... instead the field is simply null.

However, the same does not hold for sorting - if there exists a null entry (this object does not have a Contact) then the LinqDataSource throws a NullReferenceException. This means that, if you ever have nulls on your foreign-key objects, you can't use sorting headers in the ListView.

This makes the feature moderately useless - I have to roll my own properties for every single field I'd ever want to sort on. That's insane.

Forms Data Controls :: Getting The Custom Sorting And Paging With Images To Indicate The Sorting Direction In Gridview

Jul 18, 2010

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.

DataSource Controls :: Sorting Column In DataTable

Jul 26, 2010

I have a DataSet comprised of two DataTables. One of the DataTables is further comprised of the results of two different SQL calls. I need to alphabetize the results of those SQL calls. After the seconds set of results is added to the DataTable I tried the following but the end result (displayed on the page) did not alphabetize the returned results. There was no error. Can anyone advise me please. 'programs' is the DataTable name, title is the column name.

Access :: Sorting A DataTable By String / Integer Field?

Feb 23, 2010

i'm trying to sort a datatable using the typical select method*. The problem comes because the field is string defined but it's containing integer values.

With sql the problem will be solved just using something like:

select * from table order by to_number(field);

but of course it's not working properly with the method commented above (select method).

Since the gridview is empty it won't bind not allowing rendering of the <footer template> I guess I should create a empty dataset if the gridview is empty. How do I check for this and can this be done in GridviewRowEventArgs

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
