If you want it sorted by text (i.e, the second dimension), then this should work:

var sl = new SortedList();
for(int i = 0; i < vta.GetLength(1); i++) sl.Add(vta[1, i], vta[0, i]);
int k = 0;
foreach(string key in sl.Keys)
{
vta[1, k] = key;
vta[0, k] = sl[key];
k++;
}
sl = null;

So how do you want it to be sorted?
