When I sort by date, I make a seperate element  for the date called
date_convert or something.  If the date is 7-24-01, I will have
date_convert contain 20012407.  With the dates in this format, when sorted
as a regular number, it sorts the corresponding date properly.

ex:

10-4-99   =   19990410
3-24-02   =   20022403

If this is an option for you, I hope it helps.
