Which is simpelst to sort a grid by date, where the data string is user generated?
The date column is generated by a string. The string is user defined - no milli sec. So the displayed grid order is not correct due the orginal data.
Due the API I see some methods/classes - e.g. GridSortOrder. But I am looking for a simple example.
That however will only work for an InMemoryDataProvider. For a BackEndDataProvider you will have to do this provider-specific, e.g. construct a proper SQL query comparison stanza, or the like.
