Keep data with specific value on top when sorting a gridview
- by aspNetAficionado
Hi
i have a gridview with information about documents: name, document type (policy, guidelines, forms, etc), category, etc. I want to sort the gridview alphabetically (name) and by document type, but always having the 'policy' above the other document types when document name is the same. How do I do that?
eg
If I do
sort by DocumentName, DocumentType ('policy' maybe not be the first one in the list)
but if I do
sort by DocumentType , DocumentName (I would get for example all guidelines first in alphabetical order, then procedures, then policies, etc)
