Sometimes Web developers have to sort the returned data. The LINQ orderby clause sorts the elements in the returned sequence according to the default comparer for the type being sorted. For example, the following query can be extended to sort the results based on the FirstName property. Because FirstName is a string, the default comparer performs an alphabetical sort from A to Z:
Dim qryNYClients = From client In clients
Where client.City = “New York”
Order By client.FirstName Ascending
Select client
Web developers can order the results in reverse order, from Z to A, by using the Order By…Descending clause.
