Can anyone help me with sorting a list of numbers from largest to smallest?

For example:
if dValues = "0.8,1.1,1.6,0.6,2.1" then I want the result of the sort to be
dValues ="2.1,1.6,1.1,0.8,0.6"

I've tried using the sort command, but without success.
I've only succeeded in crashing MC (EG: "sort dValues descending by amount" will kill 
MC)

Is there a way to do this with the sort command? MC Help seems to indicate so, but I 
can't get figure out the syntax.
I could obviously sort the list manually but I'm looking for something more efficient.

TIA
