how to sort collection and add values to CheckBoxList sorted

Question

Hi

I have this in the page for my CheckBoxList

 <table cellspacing="0" style="height: 100%;" width="100%" cellpadding="0">

        <tr >

            <td class="blueOnGreyText" width="100%" >

                <asp:CheckBoxList ID="chkLst"  runat="server" 

                    RepeatDirection="Horizontal" RepeatColumns="3">

                </asp:CheckBoxList>

            </td>

        </tr>

    </table>

In My code i have a collection ReferenceCode

This is what i use currently to add the values to the list.

I need to

• Sort the data i get
• Add description and value to the list

 ReferenceCode[] _col = _bllRefCodes.GetReferenceCodes("tested_drug_code_id")._collection;

                for (int i = 0; i <= _col.GetUpperBound(0); i++)

                {

                                  

                    chkLst.Items.Add(_col[i].Description);

                }

Plz provide help on that

--------------------------

Tried this tooo but no sorting:

     BLLReferenceCode _bllRefCodes = new BLLReferenceCode();

                ReferenceCode[] _col = _bllRefCodes.GetReferenceCodes("tested_drug_code_id")._collection;

                for (int i = 0; i <= _col.GetUpperBound(0); i++)

                {

                    // Create new row and add it to the table.

                    chkLst.Items.Add(new ListItem(_col[i].Description, _col[i].ReferenceCodeId.ToString()));

                    

                }
