Datagrid Sorting - Directional Representation

[Guest]

I am working with a ASP.NET Datagrid. I want to show the direction (Arrow up for Ascending & Arrow down for Descending) of the sorting of a column, along with the column name, when the column is clicked. Similar to what Microsoft Outlook shows when sorting your Inbox. Does anyone know how this is done in ASP.NET, using VB.NET? I found something on using the p and q with wingding 3 font and adding the label to the column header but the sample code I found doesn't work

Thanks

Hi Barbara,

Did you know there is a special newsgroup for this.

Aspnet
<
Aspnet.datagridcontrols
<news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.asponet.datag
ridcontrol>

I think that you have a better change to get your answer there.
