Hi,
I was able to do multiple column sorting with GroupByExpression in RadControls for ASP.NET Q3 2007.
After installing RadControls for ASPNET AJAX Q1 2008, I couldn't do the same.
The default multiple sorting fails for a particular column has five sub columns, which are like "Events1,Events2,Events3,Events4,NoEvents"
I have tried in earlier release and it was working though.
The syntax used is

Hi Ramesh,
Have you set AllowMultiColumnSorting property to true? Go through the following help article.

Hello Ramesh,
I checked your GroupByExpression syntax and it seems that it does not conform to the conventions depicted in this topic from the online documentation:
http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdgroupbydeclarativedefinition.html (see the bottom paragraph)
Can you confirm that the group expression is properly evaluated in your case or revise it to be in par with the general GroupBy syntax for TSQL query? Additionally, if you want to perform multi-column sorting, consider adding multiple sort expressions programmatically as demonstrated here:
http://www.telerik.com/DEMOS/ASPNET/Prometheus/Grid/Examples/Programming/Sort/DefaultCS.aspx
or implement sorting for your template column by multiple fields as for the last template column in this example (using appropriate CommandName/CommandArgument values for the buttons in the header template of the column):
http://www.telerik.com/DEMOS/ASPNET/Prometheus/Grid/Examples/GeneralFeatures/ColumnTypes/DefaultCS.aspx
If this does not help, I would request to send us a stripped working version of your project (holding the grid page and its source) which works properly with the Q3 2007 release of RadControls (attached to a formal support ticket). We will gladly convert it for you to function properly with the Q1 2008 release of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX.
