Sorting contents of a Text Field

Question: Does anyone have a solution for sorting the contents of a text field? I have a field that is populated by a checkbox... since the boxes can be checked in any order, the text field itself is populated randomly. When I export the contents, I want them sorted alphabetically. I could write a script that pushes them out to a shell command, but I was hoping for something more cross-platform. Any ideas? Thanks!!

You could make the field auto-enter (with replacing) the following calculation:

FilterValues ( ValueListItems ( Get (FileName) ; "YourValueList" ) ; YourField )
