sort a query task into datagrid

[DerikWoo]

Hello,

I was wondering if it would be possible to sort the results of a query task into a datagrid?

Thanks

Derik

If you plan to use a map with FeatureLayer, you can use the FeatureDataGrid. It already has sorting built-in. In this sample, you can update the FeatureLayer's Where property to define your query task.

Otherwise, you can follow this sample as guide for performing query task and assigning results to a datagrid:

Hi Jennifer,

Thanks for the links.  I think that should do the trick.

Jennifer,

What if I want to be able to dynamically sort the featuredatagrid in the code-behind?  Is there a way to access a sorting method within the datagrid based on the name and/or index of the field that I want sorted?

Hi Lucas,
    I asked a similar question in the thread titled:

"Initialize FeatureDataGrid with a sorted column"

   Have you worked out a solution to programmatically sorting a FeatureDataGrid?
Thanks,
Lew.
