sort the org_no & member_type column ascending

I have a FILE1.DAT with the following information

Code:
21111111110001343 000001004OLF-AA029100020091112
21111111110000060 000001004ODL-CH001000020091112
24444444440001416 000001045OLF-AA011800020091112
23333333330001695 000001039OLF-AA030600020091112
23333333330000111 000001039ODL-SP002000020091112
23333333330000060 000001039ODL-CH001000020091112
22222222220000780 000001013OLF-AA006500020091112

i want to sort the org_no column ie position 2:10 in ascending eg 111111111 then 222222222 then 333333333 etc.
also i want to sort the member_type column position 28:33 in asc eg:

for the line 4 above after sorting i should get like this
Code:
23333333330001695 000001039OLF-AA030600020091112
23333333330000060 000001039ODL-CH001000020091112
23333333330000111 000001039ODL-SP002000020091112

This i want in .KSH script, after i do the sort for the above 2 columns from the input FILE1.DAT i should get the out FILE2.DAT like below

Code:
21111111110001343 000001004OLF-AA029100020091112
22222222220000780 000001013OLF-AA006500020091112
23333333330001695 000001039OLF-AA030600020091112
23333333330000060 000001039ODL-CH001000020091112
23333333330000111 000001039ODL-SP002000020091112
24444444440001416 000001045OLF-AA011800020091112

NAME
paps - UTF-8 to PostScript converter using Pango SYNOPSIS
paps [options] files... DESCRIPTION
paps reads a UTF-8 encoded file and generates a PostScript language rendering of the file. The rendering is done by creating outline curves through the pango ft2 backend. OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. --landscape Landscape output. Default is portrait. --columns=cl Number of columns output. Default is 1. --font=desc Set the font description. Default is Monospace 12. --rtl Do rtl layout. --paper ps Choose paper size. Known paper sizes are legal, letter, a4. Default is A4. --bottom-margin=bm Set bottom margin in postscript points (1/72 inch). Default is 36. --top-margin=tm Set top margin. Default is 36. --left-margin=lm Set left margin. Default is 36. --right-margin=rm Set right margin. Default is 36. --help Show summary of options. --header Draw page header for each page. --markup Interpret the text as pango markup. --encoding=ENCODING Assume the documentation encoding is ENCODING. --lpi Set the lines per inch. This determines the line spacing. --cpi Set the characters per inch. This is an alternative method of specifying the font size. --stretch-chars Indicates that characters should be stretched in the y-direction to fill up their vertical space. This is similar to the texttops behaviour. AUTHOR
