Question : Sorting a date column in dataview

I'm implementing column sorting in a dataset with:

Sub BindGrid(SortField As String)
     Dim Source As DataView = dsScores.DefaultView
     Source.Sort = SortField

     dgScores.DataSource = Source
     dgScores.DataBind()
End Sub

Works great on alph/num column but sorts the date column as an alpha. Haven't found anything in the docs that hints at how to type column datatypes for either the dataView or the DataSet that used to create dataview.

thankx

Answer : Sorting a date column in dataview

Steve

check whether the date column in a dataset
is not typeof(string) make sue it is
typeof(DateTime)

this could be the reason for sorting date column
alphabetically.
