SqlConnection objCon = new SqlConnection();
SqlCommand objCmd = new SqlCommand();
SqlDataAdapter objAda = new SqlDataAdapter();
DataSet objDs = new DataSet();
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!Page.IsPostBack)
{
objCon.ConnectionString = "Data Source=.;Initial Catalog=Company;Integrated Security=True;";
objCmd.Connection = objCon;
objCmd.CommandText = "select * from emp";
objAda.SelectCommand = objCmd;
objAda.Fill(objDs, "emp");
DataView dataView = objDs.Tables["emp"].DefaultView;
dataView.RowFilter = "name like 'p%'";
dataView.Sort = "marks DESC";
GridView1.DataSource = dataView;
GridView1.DataBind();
