I am not sure what you are asking for. In the post that was e-mailed to me there was some example code in vb but it does not appear in this post.
Did you want the vb code converted to COBOL or were you asking for something else?
The code shows as:
6. Private Sub DataGridView1_SortCompare( _ 7. 8. ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DataGridViewSortCompareEventArgs) _ 9. 10. Handles DataGridView1.SortCompare 11. 12. 13. 14. ' Try to sort based on the contents of the cell in the current column. 15. 16. e.SortResult = System.String.Compare(e.CellValue1.ToString(), _ 17. 18. e.CellValue2.ToString()) 19. 20. 21. 22. ' If the cells are equal, sort based on the ID column. 23. 24. If (e.SortResult = 0) AndAlso Not (e.Column.Name = "ID") Then 25. 26. e.SortResult = System.String.Compare( _ 27. 28. DataGridView1.Rows(e.RowIndex1).Cells("ID").Value.ToString(), _ 29. 30. DataGridView1.Rows(e.RowIndex2).Cells("ID").Value.ToString()) 31. 32. End If 33. 34. 35. 36. e.Handled = True 37. 38. 39. End Sub
