Sort problem with MSHFlexgrid [Resolved]

I get an runtime error "Method 'Sort' of IMSHFlexgid failed" using the following code. I have used this in another project and it worked there. What am I missing here?

Code:

---

        .SelectionMode = flexSelectionByColumn
        .Col = 0
        .ColSel = 0
        .Row = 1
        .RowSel = .Rows - 1
        .Sort = flexSortStringAscending

---

Your example works fine for me under VS SP6. Maybe you have a corrupt vbp or ???

VB Code:

Option Explicit
 
Private Sub Command1_Click()
    With MSHFlexGrid1
        .SelectionMode = flexSelectionByColumn
        .Col = 0
        .ColSel = 0
        .Row = 1
        .RowSel = .Rows - 1
        .Sort = flexSortStringAscending
    End With
End Sub
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
    With MSHFlexGrid1
        .AddItem "test3"
        .Row = 2
        .AddItem "test2"
        .Row = 3
        .AddItem "test1"
    End With
End Sub

RobDog888,

After much trial and error(s), I found the source of the problem. It was in another section of code but this problem did not occur until I added those lines of code.

I found that this line caused the problem:

.ColHeader(0) = flexColHeaderOn

for some reason you can not sort with a column header on.

odd...I've done it before so it cant be that

c00lryguy,

Well, I commented out lines of code until it worked, then uncommented the lines until it stoped working and that line was the one. It could be a combination of lines but this is the one that stoped my code from working.

I also had this strange problem, changing old applications of VB6.
ColHeader(0) = flexColHeaderOff before sorting did the trick.

thanks randem
