Value
Documentation for this section has not yet been entered.
Remarks
When a System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView control is sorted using a column with a DataGridViewColumn.SortMode property value of DataGridViewColumnSortMode.Automatic, a sorting glyph is automatically displayed in the column header.
When the control is sorted using a column with a DataGridViewColumn.SortMode property value of DataGridViewColumnSortMode.Programmatic, you must display the sorting glyph yourself through the DataGridViewColumnHeaderCell.SortGlyphDirection property.
The default sort mode of a System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewTextBoxColumn is DataGridViewColumnSortMode.Automatic. The default sort mode for other column types is DataGridViewColumnSortMode.NotSortable.
The DataGridViewColumn.SortMode value does not prevent you from sorting a column programmatically, although other restrictions may apply. For more information, see the erload:System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView.Sort method.
A DataGridViewColumn.SortMode property value of DataGridViewColumnSortMode.NotSortable will not prevent the DataGridView.ColumnHeaderMouseClick event from occurring, but it will prevent the header from changing its appearance when it is clicked.
