SetColumnSortIndicator Method

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Sub SetColumnSortIndicator( _
   ByVal column As Integer, _
   ByVal order As SortIndicator _
)

'Usage
 
Dim instance As SheetView
Dim column As Integer
Dim order As SortIndicator
 
instance.SetColumnSortIndicator(column, order)

public void SetColumnSortIndicator( 
   int column,
   SortIndicator order
)

Parameters

column: Column index
order: SortIndicator enumeration setting

The SheetView.SetColumnShowSortIndicator method and the Column.ShowSortIndicator property set whether the column shows the sort indicator the next time that the SheetView.AutoSortColumns method is called for that column. It has no effect until AutoSortColumns is called for that column index.

If you want to change the sort indicator shown for a column, use the SheetView.SetColumnSortIndicator method or the Column.SortIndicator property. These change the sort indicator in the column header and do not affect whether the column is sorted or not.

This example illustrates the use of this member by returning the sort indicator for the specified column header.

C#

fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.SetColumnSortIndicator(0, FarPoint.Win.Spread.Model.SortIndicator.Descending); 
FarPoint.Win.Spread.Model.SortIndicator si;
si = fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.GetColumnSortIndicator(0);
listBox1.Items.Add(si.ToString());

Visual Basic

FpSpread1.ActiveSheet.SetColumnSortIndicator(0, FarPoint.Win.Spread.Model.SortIndicator.Descending)
Dim si As FarPoint.Win.Spread.Model.SortIndicator
si = FpSpread1.ActiveSheet.GetColumnSortIndicator(0)
ListBox1.Items.Add(si.ToString())

Target Platforms: Windows 2000 Professional (SP4), Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2003 Server (SP1), Windows 2008, Windows XP (SP2), Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8
