Hi,

I have an input xml. I have to sort according to a particular element. Here
LaborRateStartDate.

<ListOfPriceList2>
<PriceList2>
<LaborRate>79.99</LaborRate>
<LaborRateStartDate>04/30/2010 17:00:00</LaborRateStartDate>
<LaborRateEndDate>05/31/2010 17:00:00</LaborRateEndDate>
<NAVAMLaborRateCreated>07/06/2009 11:45:28</NAVAMLaborRateCreated>
<NAVAMLaborRateLastUpdated>07/06/2009 11:45:28</NAVAMLaborRateLastUpdated>
</PriceList2>
<PriceList2>
<LaborRate>89.99</LaborRate>
<LaborRateStartDate>05/31/2010 17:00:00</LaborRateStartDate>
<LaborRateEndDate>06/30/2010 17:00:00</LaborRateEndDate>
<NAVAMLaborRateCreated>07/06/2009 11:40:58</NAVAMLaborRateCreated>
<NAVAMLaborRateLastUpdated>07/06/2009 11:40:58</NAVAMLaborRateLastUpdated>
</PriceList2>
<PriceList2>
<LaborRate>99.99</LaborRate>
<LaborRateStartDate>06/30/2010 17:00:00</LaborRateStartDate>
<LaborRateEndDate>07/31/2010 17:00:00</LaborRateEndDate>
<NAVAMLaborRateCreated>07/01/2009 11:58:16</NAVAMLaborRateCreated>
<NAVAMLaborRateLastUpdated>07/06/2009 11:39:25</NAVAMLaborRateLastUpdated>
</PriceList2>
</ListOfPriceList2>

Can anyone please guide me to sort the PriceList2 according to the LaborRateStartDate.
I was trying to get the difference from the CURRENT_DATE for all the fields.not sure how to proceed from there.
thanks in advance.

I would do it differently. You need to convert the string from the XML into an ESQL TIMESTAMP ( easy enough using CAST with a FORMAT clause, I think ). Then you can implement one of the standard sort algorithms using the simple comparison operators >, <, =.
