The following code example shows how to make a column header cell perform a sort when clicking with the mouse. To run this example, create a GcMultiRow control in a form and copy the code into the Form.Load event handler.

C#

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Template template1 = Template.CreateGridTemplate(4);

            ColumnHeaderCell columnHeaderCell = template1.ColumnHeaders[0][0] as ColumnHeaderCell;

            columnHeaderCell.SelectionMode = MultiRowSelectionMode.None;
            columnHeaderCell.SortMode = SortMode.Automatic;
            columnHeaderCell.SortCellName = "textBoxCell1";

            gcMultiRow1.Template = template1;
        }

VB.NET

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        Dim template1 As Template = Template.CreateGridTemplate(4)

        Dim columnHeaderCell As ColumnHeaderCell = TryCast(template1.ColumnHeaders(0)(0), 
ColumnHeaderCell)

        columnHeaderCell.SelectionMode = MultiRowSelectionMode.None
        columnHeaderCell.SortMode = SortMode.Automatic
        columnHeaderCell.SortCellName = "textBoxCell1"

        gcMultiRow1.Template = template1
    End Sub
