how can I make a datagridview sortable in .net?

I want to enable sorting, when the user clicks on a column header.
Is that possible to do by setting some property on the datagridview or do I have to do it manually?

I've been looking for info on this and in principle it is the property SortMode on a Column, that has to be Automatic.
But this doesn't work with custom business objects associated with the datagridview.
So I found out through this article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/defaul... that I have to create a SortedBindingList class that I use to associate to the BindingSource to the DataSource.
There is an example of a simple implementation of that here: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPos...
I used that and it works fine.
I'm wondering why this is not implemented in the framework, but well...
