Datagrid sorting

[Chris H.]

Two Questions....

1. On the DataGrid, if you click on the column titles it will sort the data
on that column and put a little "arrow" to indicate that the grid is sorted
on that column. When I populate the grid, as the data it is already in a
pre-sorted order, can a do something to set the indicator to show this.

2. Is there a way of sorting the grid on multiple columns (and showing the
little arrows)

Thanks

Re: Datagrid sorting

Not sure about the first one - you can bind the grid to a DataView and set
the sort order for multiple columns via it's .Sort property.
