There are many variables you didn't specify, so I'm going with the most common
denominators.  This is untested, so the details may need tweaking, but one
option is that you can include the actual date field as part of your "Fields",
specify that it be "Exclude(d) from display" (when you configure it), and use
it for your "Sort criteria".
