Hi All, I have a column in my table which contains a string that can have data like below: ABC 1 ABC 10 ABC 2 ABC 100 ADBCDEF - 1 ADBCDEF - 10 ADBCDEF - 3 I need the output to be like: ABC 1 ABC 2 ABC 10 ABC 100 ADBCDEF - 1 ADBCDEF - 3 ADBCDEF - 10 When i apply dataview.sort, it gives output as: ABC 1 ABC 10 ABC 100 ABC 2 I need to sort my datagrid with the above column. Can anyone provide a sorting algorithm to solve this. Thanks Sai
