I don't see any reason that why VB.Net code will not work provided it has been converted correctly.
BTW you can try some convert tool one I know is this[^]. But verify the code after it is converted don't trust them blindly.

I use the same code but the problem with the code here is that I get the header text as UserCode"<img src=../Images/bar_up.gif height=13 width=13 border=0>"
but I want the UserCode with the image not the html tag(<img src=../Images/bar_up.gif height=13 width=13 border=0>).

Please tell me how do I go about the same...

I use the following code:

Public Sub GetSort(ByVal dgGrid As

System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView, ByVal ds As System.Data.DataTable,

ByVal sortExpr As String)
'Sorts the DataGrid
Dim dv As Data.DataView = New Data.DataView(ds)
Dim i As Integer = 0
Do While (i < dgGrid.Columns.Count)
If ((dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText.Trim.Length > 0) _
AndAlso (dgGrid.Columns(i).Visible = true)) Then
Dim index As Integer =

dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText.IndexOf("<img")
If ((dgGrid.Columns(i).SortExpression = sortExpr) _
AndAlso

(dgGrid.Columns(i).SortExpression.Length > 0)) Then
If (index >= 0) Then
Dim index1 As Integer =

dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText.IndexOf("bar_down.gif")
If (index1 >= 0) Then
' sort Asc
dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText =

dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText.Substring(0, index)
dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText =

(dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText + "<img src=../Images/bar_up.gif height=13

width=13 border=0>")
dv.Sort = (sortExpr + " ASC ")
Else
' sort Desc
dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText =

dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText.Substring(0, index)
dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText =

(dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText + "<img src=../Images/bar_down.gif

height=13 width=13 border=0>")
dv.Sort = (sortExpr + " DESC")
End If
Else
dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText =

(dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText + "<img src=../Images/bar_up.gif height=13

width=13 border=0>")
dv.Sort = (sortExpr + " ASC")
End If
ElseIf (index >= 0) Then
dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText =

dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText.Substring(0, index)
End If
End If
i = (i + 1)
Loop
dgGrid.DataSource = dv
dgGrid.DataBind
End Sub

But when I click on the Header Column of the Gridview I get UserCode with the image tag where as I want UserCode and image only not the image tag.

Please tell me where I am going wrong.I think the problem is with
dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText =

(dgGrid.Columns(i).HeaderText + "<img src=../Images/bar_up.gif height=13

width=13 border=0>")
Statment??
I really dont know how to go about this.

I think directly you can't set the headertext as html contect it is not been rendered as html. What you can do is make is headertemplate and then put label in that and then try to assign html in it.
BTW are you sure the same is working with c# because I think it should not work there also.

Thanks for replying.Can you provide some code for the same.
Also it works in C#,I have done this in my prevoius project.Since I am working on ASP.NET(VB) I wanted to do the same so thought of using the same code but its not working.
Please me in writing code for the suggestion which you gave me.
Thanks again.

Can you tell me whether you are using datagrid or gridview. Because the parameter of the method used suggest that you are using datagrid and the subject of the thread says the other?

Actually my previous project was in ASP.NET 2003 and now I am using ASP.NET 2005,but do u think it is going to make any problem if I use the same code???

Actually previously you were using datagrid where it is working fine but here it seems that you are using gridview and here it doesnot work. BTW in 2005 also you can use datagrid unless you have some specific reason to use the gridview. Smile | :)

No we have been told to use GridView.Please tell me any other way you know.

Here in gridview what you can do is to create a headertemplate and then put the control you want and then use it.
Also you can have a look at this link[^]. The same thing is being implemented here in Gridview.

What is not working? Have you followed the content in the article or you tried it with just applying headertemplate control.
