sort a datatable before bind a bindingsource for a datagridview

I have a datatable with some duplications in column "Name", I want to sort the datatable so that the rows of same names are shown together when bind it to a binding source of a datagridview. Is this possilble?

thanks in advance!

Lets assume dt is your datatable, you can use defaultview's sort property

Here is a sample

dt.DefaultView.Sort = "Column1 ASC,COLUMN2 DESC";
dataGridView1.DataSource = dt.DefaultView;
