Hello,
I have a gridtemplate column that is a label, but the value is a decimal value and I need the column to sort it like a number and not text (it sorts it as text). I have read numerous posts and the online help but I don't understand exactly what I need to do in order to sort a gridtemplate column in this manner. I can sort the bound number columns just fine. Here is my grid column:

<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Right" Width="65px" Wrap="False" />
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblTransAmount" CssClass="NormalNarrow" Text='<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.TRANS_AMOUNT") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

I can't seem to get this to work. I converted the code and plugged it in but I get compile errors on the properties (saying they don't return a value in all code paths). Is this the only way to make a gridtemplatecolumn sort properly?
