Question

Basically I’m setting my datasource on my gridview to a datatable that I filled in manually. Is there a way to get the gridview to autopage and sort? When I try to go to another page on the gridview it gives me an exception saying that the paging event is not being caught (meaning I don’t have a method for the event). I have allow paging set to true as well.

you have to implement OnPageIndexChanging event for paging , OnSorting event for sorting like :

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" OnPageIndexChanging="GridView1_PageIndexChanging" OnSorting="GridView1_Sorting" runat="server" />

and in code behind :

protected void GridView1_PageIndexChanging(object sender, GridViewPageEventArgs e)
    {
        GridView1.PageIndex = e.NewPageIndex;
        GridView1.DataBind();
    }
protected void GridView1_Sorting(object sender, GridViewSortEventArgs e)
    {
        // sort expression
    }
