This is a WPF MVVM-light app.

A quick note: UserList, used in the GetDefaultView, is an ObservableCollection<T>

I have a collection view that is built like so:

private ICollectionView _iCollectionUserList { get; set; }
    public ICollectionView ICollectionUserList
    {
        get
        {
            if (_iCollectionUserList == null)
            {
                _iCollectionUserList = CollectionViewSource.GetDefaultView(UserList);
                _iCollectionUserList .SortDescriptions.Add(new SortDescription("StatusID", ListSortDirection.Ascending));
                _iCollectionUserList .SortDescriptions.Add(new SortDescription("EmployeeNo", ListSortDirection.Ascending));
            }
            return _iCollectionUserList ;
        }
    }

It will sort by StatusID, but it absolutely refuses to sort by EmployeeNo. I cross referenced my query in SQL Server MGMTS with my app and it definitely is not working. I tried commenting out the StatusID sort and that doesn't work either. Both are of type int.

Property names are case sensitive. Can you cross check property name? – Rohit Vats Jul 25 '14 at 18:47
if you remove EmployeeNo sort line, does it work? – Kcvin Jul 25 '14 at 18:55
Yes. It works right now with it, it just doesn't do that specific sort. – JTester Jul 25 '14 at 19:10
could you post a sample your source data and sorted output? – pushpraj Jul 26 '14 at 03:24
I actually figured it out todat. I just called .Refresh () on it. – JTester Jul 26 '14 at 05:15
