I believe by setting 'CanSort' as false should do the trick automatically. Quick reference: http://weblogs.asp.net/andrebaltieri/archive/2010/11/02/asp-net-mvc-3-working-with-webgrid-part-2.aspx[^]

Try out if that works for a column.

Actually boss I have already sorted in the descending order by default for the fourth column. It should be in that order always. So now since that symbol becomes meaningless, I want to remove it without affecting the sorting functionality. this is my problem. could u please suggest some ideas?

Get the data in the desired sort order and then just bind/show that. Set canSort as false.
