What I needed to do was to sort a list of dates and corresponding names in order of date. Problem was that sometimes the dates duplicate and as a result, a standard SortedList would crash (since keys need to be unique). Anyway, here's a workaround to that problem. We create a new class for the project as follows:

    public class ComparableDateTime : IComparable
    {
        private DateTime mDT;

        public int CompareTo(object obj)
        {
            if (mDT.Ticks < ((ComparableDateTime)obj).mDT.Ticks) return -1;
            return 1;
        }

        public ComparableDateTime(DateTime myDate)
        {
            mDT = myDate;
        }
    }

Then once we have the class, we can declare a SortedList with that class:

using System.Collections.Generic;

SortedList<ComparableDateTime, string> mySortedList = new SortedList<ComparableDateTime,string>();

DateTime someDate = DateTime.Today;

mySortedList.Add(new ComparableDateTime(someDate,"someString");
mySortedList.Add(new ComparableDateTime(someDate,"someString2");

for (int i = 0; i < mySortedList.Count; i++)
{
    writer.Write(mySortedList.Values[i].ToString());
}
