After rereading what I wrote i see a small error ...
 
 
1.  create a sorted stringlist and use the date formatted
    as either an integer with fixed number of digits (leading 0s)
 
I shouldn't say "create a sorted stringlist" - it should really
be "unsorted" because after you get it loaded up you call the
Sort method to sort it.
 
I suppose you could instead create the list sorted and then just
add all the entries (and not call Sort at the end).
 
I can't prove it - but it seems likely to me that doing it this
second way will be slower (more compares).    But it's just a guess.
