Seems you have empty rows or rows with no data in the column you are sorting by. To determine if this is true, get the dgText of the datagrid, and examine it either in the debugger or else by putting it in a scrolling field. I made a custom sort function that sorts rows with a particular value

Hi, I detected that when I order by a column that is defined as text and scroll down to the last row many many empty rows are added and cause that only the last row left visible on top of the datagrid and the rows scroll without moving it, if you scroll up again the rows after pass the empty ones
