I need to specify the sort order in custom code of a grid control. How may I do this and what event is appropriate (i.e. beforeshow)?
Thank you.

We need more information about the data that you are trying to sort. What are you SQL/Table fields? Are you putting the grid in alphabetical order or do you want to use a custom order??
You could probably control the order of the grid through the data source, unless you have another reason for wanting to wait until before you show the grid.

so why not just put an order by in your SQL statement?
you can specify only the order under the SQL page properties in code charge, but that only for a single field sort ascending or descending, if you need more complex, use and order by.
