I am creating datatable and addingcolumns dynamically. How to show sort icon in each column when datatable loaded?

thanks in advance..

Hi,

You can set the Column.HeaderCell.SortGlyphDirection property. For example:

DataTable dt01 = new DataTable();

dt01.Columns.Add("col01");

dt01.Columns.Add("col02");

dt01.Columns.Add("col03");

dt01.Rows.Add("11", "aa","1a");

dt01.Rows.Add("22", "bb","2b");

dataGridView1.DataSource = dt01;

dataGridView1.Columns[0].HeaderCell.SortGlyphDirection = SortOrder.Ascending;

dataGridView1.Columns[1].HeaderCell.SortGlyphDirection = SortOrder.Descending;

DataGridViewColumnHeaderCell.SortGlyphDirection Property

Gets or sets a value indicating which sort glyph is displayed.
