Hi, I have a dataset generated from xml from a web service.

Data needs to be sorted by date order descending, I cannot get the web service changed so thought I'd try:

Code:
repeater1.DataSource = dsCombinedBlock.Tables(2).Select("Status < 3 and status <> 99", "DateReceived desc")
However the dates are treated as a string so the results look like

28/06/2011
27/06/2011
27/06/2011
02/06/2011
01/07/2011

How do I get the proper ordering applied.

thanks Dave
