Problem with sorting RadGrid

[Kenneth Miller]

I have run into a problem when sorting a RadGrid. I am using the advanced databinding option in a grid creating in the markup. When I click on a grid header, the sort happens properly for that column, and the arrow indicator appears. If I then click on the indicator to do the opposite sort, the sorting indicator jumps to the next column to the right. This proceeds that way all across the grid.

I found this problem referenced in one older ticket from 2013, but that one simply indicated that the problem was resolved by using advanced databinding. I am already doing that, so what else am I missing?

 

My grid is defined as given here:

 

 <telerik:RadGrid ID="RecalledUPCDisplay" runat="server" Width="700px"  OnNeedDataSource="RadGrid1_NeedDataSource"
                OnSelectedIndexChanged="RadGrid1_SelectedIndexChanged"  OnHTMLExporting="RadGrid1_HtmlExporting" AllowSorting="True"
                 AutoGenerateColumns="False" Height="400px" Skin="Web20" ItemStyle-Height="18"
                        AlternatingItemStyle-Height="20">

                <ClientSettings EnablePostBackOnRowClick="true" >
                     <Scrolling AllowScroll="True" ScrollHeight="300px" UseStaticHeaders="True" />
                     <Selecting AllowRowSelect="True" />

                         
                </ClientSettings>
                
                <MasterTableView EnableViewState="False" HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center" Font-Names="Arial"  Font-Size="8" UseAllDataFields="true" DataKeyNames="UPC">
                <Columns>

                                     
                                   <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="UPC" HeaderText="UPC"
                                          UniqueName="UPC" SortExpression="UPC">
                                          <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" Width="20" />
                                          <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"/>
                                          
                                      </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

                                 <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Description" HeaderText="Description"
                                          UniqueName="Description">
                                          <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" Width="60" />
                                          <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"/>
                                      </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

                                   <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="DateEntered" HeaderText="Date Entered"
                                          UniqueName="DateEntered">
                                          <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" Width="15" />
                                          <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"/>
                                      </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

                                 <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Comment" HeaderText="Comment"
                                          UniqueName="Comment">
                                          <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" Width="20" />
                                          <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"/>
                                      </telerik:GridBoundColumn>


              </Columns>


              </MasterTableView>

                    <SortingSettings SortedBackColor="#FFF6D6" EnableSkinSortStyles="True"></SortingSettings>


                 <ExportSettings  IgnorePaging="False" OpenInNewWindow="True" ExportOnlyData="True">

                  <Csv ColumnDelimiter="VerticalBar" EncloseDataWithQuotes="False" />

            </ExportSettings>

    </telerik:RadGrid>

 

 

And the NeedDataSource call:

 

    Protected Sub RadGrid1_NeedDataSource(sender As Object, e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridNeedDataSourceEventArgs)
        TryCast(sender, RadGrid).DataSource = BLLInterface.GetRecalledUPCs
    End Sub

Hello Kenneth,

Please make sure that you are using a recent version of the controls. I am sending a sample RadGrid web site with basic sorting implementation. Please run the attached application and verify that it works properly on your side, too.
