Sorting is slow how???

[Dan]

Hey guys

I have a datagrid that i can sort, great. Problem is when i click to sort it
the grid takes ages to re-populate. Someone advised me that to fix this I
should turn off view state as its read only, which i did. Now the grid is
very fast at re-populating...again great. Only problem is that now my
sorting does not work as view state is off.

Anyone know a way to solve this?

issue.. any pointers to good tutorials on custom paging?

Take a look at:

It describes to how to sort without the viewstate.
