asp.net - Date format sorting issue -


i using asp.net 2005 on system , creating application. have issue date format sorting. have table including 3 fields "user name, date time, visit page".

my records below

user name     date time              visited page     xyz          4/4/2013 5:30:45 pm     aaa.aspx         xyz          4/4/2013 6:35:15 pm     aaa.aspx         xyz          4/4/2013 7:55:45 pm     aaa.aspx         xyz          4/4/2013 10:05:45 pm     aaa.aspx         xyz          4/4/2013 11:06:45 pm     aaa.aspx 

i want sorted without using java script or jquery. , output should

user name     date time              visited page     xyz          4/4/2013 11:06:45 pm     aaa.aspx     xyz          4/4/2013 10:05:45 pm     aaa.aspx     xyz          4/4/2013 7:55:45 pm     aaa.aspx     xyz          4/4/2013 6:35:15 pm     aaa.aspx     xyz          4/4/2013 5:30:45 pm     aaa.aspx 

but got output this

user name     date time              visited page     xyz          4/4/2013 7:55:45 pm     aaa.aspx     xyz          4/4/2013 6:35:15 pm     aaa.aspx     xyz          4/4/2013 5:30:45 pm     aaa.aspx xyz          4/4/2013 11:06:45 pm     aaa.aspx     xyz          4/4/2013 10:05:45 pm     aaa.aspx  

i tried sorted via dataview not working can 1 me out issue.

there many other ways read csv, including raw text file , simple string parsing. can use of suggestions in other answers here, or can populate results datatable, or whatever. use whatever comfortable with.

the important bit hasn't been mentioned in other answers need explicit datetime format reading. example, how know 1/2/2013 represents either january 2nd, or february 1st?

since file have not using invariant date format (like iso8601 example), should somewhere explicitly providing format, such as:

datetime dt = datetime.parseexact(yourdatestring,                                   "m/d/yyyy",  // or "d/m/yyyy"                                   cultureinfo.invariantculture);
