Ideally I would like to sort that out using a native AS solution...
In which case something like this might help, Jay:
-------------
to sort_items of main_list by sort_list
script o
property l : main_list
property s : sort_list
end script
repeat with i from 2 to count o's l
set v to o's s's item i
set w to o's l's item i
repeat with i from i to 2 by -1
set j to i - 1
tell o's s's item j to if v < it then
set o's s's item i to it
set o's l's item i to o's l's item j
else
set o's s's item i to v
set o's l's item i to w
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
if i is 2 and v < o's s's item 1 then
set o's s's item 1 to v
set o's l's item 1 to w
end if
end repeat
end sort_items
set source_folder to choose folder (* or specify a folder path/alias *)
tell application "Finder" to set {file_list, mod_date} to {it,
modification date} of (files of folder ¬
source_folder's entire contents whose name extension is "jpg" and
locked is false)
sort_items of file_list by mod_date
file_list -- do something with sorted file_list (list of Finder
references)
