Sorting rows in a data table

I’m afraid you can’t easily do an in-place sort of a DataTable like it sounds like you want to do.

What you can do is create a new DataTable from a DataView that you create from your original DataTable. Apply whatever sorts and/or filters you want on the DataView and then create a new DataTable from the DataView using the DataView.ToTable method:

   DataView dv = ft.DefaultView;
   dv.Sort = "occr desc";
   DataTable sortedDT = dv.ToTable();
