    How to sort data coming from cellcontenttemplate

    I have a column in Xceed datagrid where code is like:

    <xcdg:Colum FieldName="CorpId" CellContentTemplate="{StaticResource nameConverter}"/>

    Now FieldName is taking CorpId as value but I am using a converter to display the respective Name based on CorpId. When I am using SortDescription to perform sorting on this column, actually sorting is performed on FieldName i.e CorpId but I want to sort based on the name that i am getting from my converter.

     

    Plz help me out.

    Re: How to sort data coming from cellcontenttemplate

     you can have them implement IComparable or, if you do not have control over the data item implementation, you can create a custom IComparable and provide it to the SortComparer property of the desired DataGridItemProperty (these are defined via the ItemProperties collection of the DataGridCollectionViewSource).

    Don't forget to bind the DataGridControl's ItemsSource property to the DataGridCollectionViewSource rather than directly to the list.

    Additional information and examples can be found in the documentation:http://doc.xceedsoft.com/products/XceedWpfDataGrid/Sorting_Data.html
