16      <para>The <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView" /> control raises the <see cref="E:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView.Sorting" /> event when a Sort button (a button with its CommandName property set to "Sort") is clicked, but before the <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView" /> control handles the sort operation. This allows you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine, such as canceling the sorting operation, whenever this event occurs.</para>

18        <para>Although any button within a <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView" /> control with its CommandName property set to "Sort" will raise the <see cref="E:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView.Sorting" /> event, Sort buttons typically appear in the header row of a <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView" /> control.</para>

20      <para>A <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewSortEventArgs" /> object is passed to the event-handling method, which allows you to specify or determine the sort expression and sort direction in which to sort the <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView" /> control. To determine the sort expression, use the <see cref="P:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewSortEventArgs.SortExpression" /> property. To determine the sort direction, use the <see cref="P:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewSortEventArgs.SortDirection" /> property. You can also cancel a sorting operation by setting the <see cref="P:System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs.Cancel" /> property to true.</para>

102          <para>When the <see cref="E:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView.Sorting" /> event is raised, you can use the <see cref="P:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewSortEventArgs.SortDirection" /> property to determine the order in which the <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView" /> control will sort its items (based on the sort expression) when the sort operation is performed. Because the <see cref="E:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView.Sorting" /> event occurs before the sort operation, you can also use the <see cref="P:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewSortEventArgs.SortDirection" /> property to programmatically set the sort direction.</para>

124          <para>When the <see cref="E:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView.Sorting" /> event is raised, you can use the <see cref="P:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewSortEventArgs.SortExpression" /> property to determine the sort expression that will be used to sort the <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView" /> control when sort operation is performed. By default, the <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView" /> control sorts a single column at a time. The sort expression simply contains the name of the field to sort. You can also sort multiple columns at a time by programmatically setting this property to a comma-separated list of field names.</para>
