The easiest way to sort the data as integer/number in Grid using datatable



If you have numeric codes stored in a DataTable. When You try to sort it the column take as string.

The grid displays below as ascending order(string sorting) 
55 77 8

But I need the columns to be displayed like this(Integer sorting) 
8 55 77


If we are using Datatable then specify the type of the field while adding the column else the field will be of type string.

DataTable dt= new DataTable();

dt.Columns.Add("ID", typeof(int));


then

DataView dv = new DataView(dt);

dv.Sort = "ID desc";

DataTable sortedDT = dv.ToTable();

datagrid.DataSource = sortedDT;

datagrid.DataBind();

How to retain the data annotations or class during modify a table in the database

Interview Questions

Difference between GET and POST. Which one is more secure? GET and POST methods are used for the data transfer between the web pages.

There is also limited data which can be passed in case of GET method (max 255 character). POST is used for transferring the huge data between the pages where we can keep the secure data and can transfer it. In case of using the POST method, the data which is transferring between the pages will not be visible so it is more secure than the GET method.
