Dsiplaying Arrow image - initial loading

[Lakshmi Narayana]

Hi,
I have one requirement, Data is coming already sorted on last name and i am binding to the grid. I should display Arrow image for asc sorting.
Next time onwards, if i click on some other column, it should have image for that particular and sorting should happen for the required column.

Any idea?

Hi Lakshmi,

You can apply default ascending sort expression for the ‘Last name’ column in the grid either declaratively or programmatically (based on the result returned from your stored procedure). Review the following topic from the product documentation for more details:

http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdsortingexpressions.html

Thus the ‘Last name’ column will be sorted in ascending order initially and you can still sort other columns (‘First name’ for example) afterwards. Note that you also have the option allow multi-column sorting as illustrates in the demo you pointed.
