<table class="rowover-side" border="0"
id="Table1" width="800" style="BORDER-RIGHT: #666666 1px
solid; BORDER-TOP: #666666 1px solid; OVERFLOW: auto;
BORDER-LEFT: #666666 1px solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: #666666 1px
solid; width: 800; BEHAVIOR: url
('../../../unprotected/Includes/htc/tablerowover.htc'); "
cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0" striped="true">

<thead>

</tr>

</thead>

<tbody>

</HeaderTemplate>

<ItemTemplate>

<tr height="18">



<td align="left" valign="middle"
class="tablecopy" ><a class="tablecopylink"
href="javascript: Submit(<%# DataBinder.Eval
(Container.DataItem, "promotion_id") %>)" > <%#
DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "promotion_name") %

</a></td>

<td align="left" valign="middle"
class="tablecopy"><%# GetDecription(DataBinder.Eval
(Container.DataItem, "Description").ToString()) %></td>



<td align="left" valign="middle"
class="tablecopy"><%# DataBinder.Eval
(Container.DataItem, "START_DATE") %></td>



<td align="left" valign="middle"
class="tablecopy"><%# DataBinder.Eval
(Container.DataItem, "END_DATE") %></td>

</tr>

</ItemTemplate>

<FooterTemplate>
</TABLE>
</FooterTemplate> </asp:Repeater>

Basically, the only way is to sort the DataSource prior to DataBinding.
