How to enable DataGridView sorting when user clicks on the column header?

Question

I have a datagridview on my form and I populate it with this:

dataGridView1.DataSource = students.Select(s => new { ID = s.StudentId, RUDE = s.RUDE, Nombr         


        

Answer 1

Just in case somebody still looks for it, I did it on VS 2008 C#.

On the Event ColumnHeaderMouseClick, add a databinding for the gridview, and send the order by field like a parameter. You can get the clicked field as follows:

dgView.Columns[e.ColumnIndex].Name

In my case the header's names are similar to view field names.
