Table sort / date

Hello,

maybe someone out there can help me with this little problem.

I have a table with a column that contains 'date' values. When I try to sort the table according to this column the program sorts the date values like strings (of course). Is there an easy way to sort the table ascending by date actually?

The sorted table reads
05.11.07
05.11.07
08.11.07
10.10.07
12.11.07
17.10.07

which is string sorted, of course. I can maybe insert another hidden column with the time ticks and sort this column then, but isn't there an easier way?

Tia
