I have written the following code

DataView dv = (DataView)ObjectDataSource1.Select(); 
                GridView1.DataSourceID = null;                
                dv.RowFilter = @"ElementDescription like '%"+searchbox.Text.Trim()+"%'";
                dv.Sort = "ElementDescription DESC";
                //dv.RowStateFilter = DataViewRowState.ModifiedCurrent;               
                GridView1.DataSource = dv;         
                source = "view";
                GridView1.DataBind();

I am able to get this working until sorting on the gridview is clicked once gridview sort is clicked i get the error " datasource doesnot support sorting"

I you have any ideas kindly let me know.

Solution 1

When you click sort, in your click event clear the datasourceID.
Try, Gridview.Columns.Clear() then rebind everything.

Have a look at this thread discussion [^]for more option and details.

i wasted nearly morethan a day figuring out how to convert dataview to objectdatasource and finally

i could not do the search by using dataview so i created a new stored procedure and then changed the select method on search button clicked event ,Below is the code

SQL

ObjectDataSource1.SelectMethod = "GetDataBySearch";
        source = "view";
        ViewState["searchitem"] = searchbox.Text.Trim();
        ViewState["dropdownindex"] = Convert.ToInt32(DropDownList1.SelectedValue);
        ObjectDataSource1.Selecting +=new ObjectDataSourceSelectingEventHandler(ObjectDataSource1_Selecting);
        GridView1.DataBind();

hope if it helps someone
