Sort a Custom Column

[StevenDale]

I have a the following column definition:  I want to be able to sort this column on the Sailor.Name property. How do I accomplish this?

Thanks in advance,

<telerik:GridViewColumn Width="*" Header="Sailor" IsSortable="True" >
  <telerik:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
      <Grid>
        <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
          <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
          <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
        </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" />
        <Image Source="{DynamicResource User_Man_Padlock}" Grid.Column="1" Margin="0,0,10,0" ToolTip="{Binding DetailRequisitionAssignedTo, Converter={StaticResource DetailRequisitionConverter}}" Height="15"  >
          <Image.Visibility>
            <MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource SailorLockVisibilityConverter}" ConverterParameter="Left">
              <Binding Path="DetailRequisitionAssignedTo" />
              <Binding RelativeSource="{RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:MainWindow}}" Path="DataContext.SailorsOnLeft" />
              <Binding RelativeSource="{RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:MainWindow}}" Path="DataContext.SelectedJobInformation" />
            </MultiBinding>
          </Image.Visibility>
        </Image>
        <Image Source="{DynamicResource Padlock}" Grid.Column="1" Margin="0,0,10,0" ToolTip="{Binding DetailRequisitionAssignedTo, Converter={StaticResource DetailRequisitionConverter}}" Height="15"  >
          <Image.Visibility>
            <MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource SailorLockVisibilityConverter}" ConverterParameter="Right">
              <Binding Path="DetailRequisitionAssignedTo" />
              <Binding RelativeSource="{RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:MainWindow}}" Path="DataContext.SailorsOnLeft" />
              <Binding RelativeSource="{RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:MainWindow}}" Path="DataContext.SelectedJobInformation" />
            </MultiBinding>
          </Image.Visibility>
        </Image>
        <Image Source="{DynamicResource User_Man_Padlock}" Grid.Column="1" Margin="0,0,10,0" ToolTip="{Binding DetailRequisitionAssignedTo, Converter={StaticResource DetailRequisitionConverter}}" Height="15"  >
          <Image.Visibility>
            <MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource SailorLockVisibilityConverter}" ConverterParameter="AssignedTo">
              <Binding Path="DetailRequisitionAssignedTo" />
              <Binding RelativeSource="{RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:MainWindow}}" Path="DataContext.SailorsOnLeft" />
              <Binding RelativeSource="{RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:MainWindow}}" Path="DataContext.SelectedJobInformation" />
            </MultiBinding>
          </Image.Visibility>
        </Image>
      </Grid>
    </DataTemplate>
  </telerik:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
</telerik:GridViewColumn>

Hi Billy Jacobs,

You just have to use GridViewDataColumn instead of GridViewColumn and set DataMemberBinding on the column ("Sailor.Name").
