DataGrid SortCommand does not fire

Oct 21st, 2009

I have a DataGrid that I create dynamically in codebehind. I add events to the datagrid, it works fine except of the SortCommand event. It will not fire.
If I change my page_load to create and bind the datagrid everytime when a postback it works. But I don´t want to do an extra databind at a postback.
All other events is working fine so why not the SortCommand???
.net 1.1
Visual studio 2003

Thanx for any help and ideas!
