Answer 1

I took kuba's solution, and put it in a utility class I can use on any DataGridView:

    private static ListSortDirection _oldSortOrder;
    private static DataGridViewColumn _oldSortCol;

    /// 

    /// Saves information about sorting column, to be restored later by calling RestoreSorting
    /// on the same DataGridView
    /// 
    /// 
    public static void SaveSorting(DataGridView grid)
    {
        _oldSortOrder = grid.SortOrder == SortOrder.Ascending ?
            ListSortDirection.Ascending : ListSortDirection.Descending;
        _oldSortCol = grid.SortedColumn;
    }

    /// 

    /// Restores column sorting to a datagrid. You MUST call this AFTER calling 
    /// SaveSorting on the same DataGridView
    /// 
    /// 
    public static void RestoreSorting(DataGridView grid)
    {
        if (_oldSortCol != null)
        {
            DataGridViewColumn newCol = grid.Columns[_oldSortCol.Name];
            grid.Sort(newCol, _oldSortOrder);
        }
    }

Using this looks like:

GridUtility.SaveSorting(grid);    
grid.DataSource = databaseFetch(); // or whatever
GridUtility.RestoreSorting(grid);
