Hourglass cursor while grid doing sorting

Hi,
I am doing external sorting for grid and i want to show hourglass cursor while sorting happening.Sorting takes a few seconds but cursor changes to default immedately and data comes after a few seconds.

So i want to ask is the sorting happening asynchronously. Or is there any way to solve the problem.

Try using setTimeout() function to start sorting procedure.

Hi,
Thanx for reply.......
I think you are saying to put a delay by setTimeout function. But sorting time may vary for case to case(like no. of record to sort).

Can u tell me, internally or default behaviour of grid sorting. whether it is synchronous/asynchronous.

And if asynchronous can we make it synchronous.
