Sort Data in Column with Custom Sort List
Possible Usage Scenarios
You can sort data in the column using a custom list. This can be done using DataSorter.AddKey(int key, SortOrder order, String customList) method. However, this method works only if the items in the custom list do not have commas inside them. If they have commas like “USA, US”, “China, CN” etc., then you must use DataSorter.AddKey(int key, SortOrder order, String customList) method. Here, the last parameter is not String but an Array of Strings.
