  Hello,
  
  Is there any requirement for sorting to work other than setting “C1List.AllowSort = True” or “C1Flexgrid.AllowSort = True”? Does the type of datasource matter or anything like that?
  
  On the flex grid “.AllowFilter = True” works fine but not the sort.
  
  Thanks in advance
  
  Brian

  Hello,

  The only reasons for sorting to not work can be:

  1. Using bound and unbound columns, in which case sorting does not work for unbound column.

  2. Using a List as Data Source of FlexGrid. See this link to solve this problem:

  If you’re using a DataTable as DataSource, can you please send a small sample replicating the issue or modify the attached sample so I can investigate this further?

  Mr Sharma,
  
  Yes I think #2 is the problem, a List worked with another brand of control. Even tried a BindingList.
  
  Thanks for the sample.
