Property Value

Type	Description
FieldSortMode	A FieldSortMode enumeration member that specifies how the field's data is sorted.

Remarks

The SortMode property determines the algorithm used to sort the field's data (by display text, edit value or using a custom sorting algorithm).

To provide custom sorting, set the SortMode property to FieldSortMode.Custom and handle the PivotGridControl.CustomFieldSort event.

To apply sorting to a field, set the field's PivotGridField.SortOrder property to FieldSortOrder.Ascending or FieldSortOrder.Descending. This will arrange the field's values in ascending or descending order, using the algorithm that is specified by the SortMode property.
