I dont recognize the date/time format but here's the general procedure:

• Parse the file into data and timestamp.
• Make an array where each array element is s cluster of timestamp (first element) and data (second element).
• Sort the array using "sort array" from the array palette. (This takes advantave of the fact that arrays of clusters are sorted according to cluster order).
• Do whatever you want with the output. 😉

Here's a quick solution that sorts by the date/time string. Modify as needed. (LabVIEW 8.0)
