Hello everyone,
question;
is it possible to call sorting on one of the columns programatically in datagrid??
one more question:
how to change the itemssource for datagrid?
when i am switching for new itemssource the datagrid still displays the old data.
and there is no method Bind() to refresh the datagrid...
Thanks in advance!

To your second question: Inside your datagrid columns you use databinding? Did you use INotifyPropertyChanged in your source data?

no i didn't.. i resolved the problem first to set the datasource to null, and then again to bind it to datagrid.
thanks,
al

Yes, with Silverlight 3 Beta, you can use SortDescriptions to sort a column programatically, following sample should help:

dataGrid.SortDescriptions.Add(
You can even use this to have your columns initially sorted.

public ObservableCollection<ClientListCommon> ClientList = new ObservableCollection<ClientListCommon>();
{
}
