Can you please explain how it is being sorted? Does it seem like it is trying to sort, but not getting it right? Can you provide sample data and how Views is sorting it?

My guess is that by default Views sorts on the value field in the schema, and that in order to get a fully accurate sort that the module would need to implement a views hook or interface to define an accurate sort for the value field.

In my site,i have one content type which has one cck time field along with two cck text fields and now i am trying to create a block by views to list out the content of that content type according to cck time field in ascending order. for example

sample text1 6:30AM
sample text2 8:15AM
sample text3 10:35AM
...
..
sample text10 11:20PM

but data is not arranging in proper order .For example it displays

sample text9 10:20PM
sample text10 11:20PM
sample text2 8:15AM
sample text3 10:35AM
...

Not sure. again I'd suggest that Views doesn't know how to properly sort this data. Worth loking into whether thwhat needs to be implemented to extend Views sorting for CCK fields (or compound fields).
