you are right, that was my mistake the position 28 through 33 should be in descending order.

23333333330000111 000001039ODL-SP002000020091112
23333333330001695 000001039OLF-AA030600020091112

In any case, the sort command can be used here:

Can someone please answer my query.
i like to sort the position 2:10 in ascending and position 32:33 in descending and not 28:33 as i mention earlier in my post.

Infile FILE1.DAT is
21111111110001343 000001004OLF-AA029100020091112
21111111110000060 000001004ODL-CH001000020091112
24444444440001416 000001045OLF-AA011800020091112
23333333330001695 000001039OLF-AA030600020091112
23333333330000111 000001039ODL-SP002000020091112
23333333330000060 000001039ODL-CH001000020091112
22222222220000780 000001013OLF-AA006500020091112

Outfie FILE2.DAT should be like this
21111111110001343 000001004OLF-AA029100020091112
22222222220000780 000001013OLF-AA006500020091112
23333333330001695 000001039OLF-AA030600020091112
23333333330000060 000001039ODL-CH001000020091112
23333333330000111 000001039ODL-SP002000020091112
24444444440001416 000001045OLF-AA011800020091112

dcsort

DCSORT(1)					      DICOM PS3 - Make sorted list of images						 DCSORT(1)

NAME

       dcsort - ACR/NEMA DICOM PS3 ... DICOM PS3 - Make sorted list of images

SYNOPSIS

       dcsort  "  inputfile1  [ inputfile2 ... ]" [ -v|verbose ] [ -vv|veryverbose ] [ -vvv|veryveryverbose ] [ -index ] [ -show ] [ -interval ] [
		 -tolerance mm ] [ -check ] [ -checkFoR ] [ -descending ] [ -sortby|k  attributename ]

DESCRIPTION

       dcsort reads the named dicom input files and sorts them by the specified sort key.

       The sort key should be a single valued numeric attribute, with the exception of ImageOrientationPatient and ImagePositionPatient which  are
       handled as special cases.

       There is no output by default unless the index or verbose options are specified.

OPTIONS

       The output and errors go to standard error.

       The basic input switches are described in dcintro(1). Options specific to this program are:

       -index
	      Creates a first column of output that is the index in the sort order, starting from 0, and a second column that is the filename.

       -show
	      Show the value of the sort key after the file name with the -index option

       -interval
	      Show the interval between values of the sort key, or an error if not equal

       -tolerance mm
	      The tolerance value in mm to use when comparing intervals between slices; defaults to +/- 0.01 mm if unspecified

       -check
	      Check that all the images are from the same series.

       -checkFoR
	      Check that all the images have the same Frame of Reference (UID).

       -descending
	      Sort in descending, rather than the default ascending, order.

       -sortby|k  attributename
	      Specify attributename as the sort key.

ENVIRONMENT


EXAMPLES


       % dcsort -index -sortby SliceLocation ./1/[0-9]*
       0    ./1/1
       1    ./1/2
