Hi all,
   
  Suppose I have following dataset :
   
  library(zoo)
  SD = 1
date1 = seq(as.Date("01/01/90", format = "%m/%d/%y"), as.Date("12/31/08", 
format = "%m/%d/%y"), by = 1)
len1 = length(date1); data1 = zoo(matrix(rnorm(len1, mean=0, sd=SD*0.5), nrow = 
len1),  date1)

  Now I want to extract monthly observation. 
   
  obs = split(as.data.frame(data1), format(index(data1), "%y%m"))

  However surprisingly order of the observation has been changed :
  > head(obs, 1)
$`0001`
                 data1
2000-01-01 -0.11638271

1999-12-31 -0.398879255

  If you compare this with my actual data then it will be clear :
   
  > head(data1, 5)
                      
1990-01-01 -0.59800528
1990-01-02  0.84037877
1990-01-03  0.02663068
1990-01-04 -1.38561111
1990-01-05 -0.18783481

  How I can sort 'obs' in proper way? Precisely I want to see 'obs' starts from 
1990 only
   
  Your help will be highly appreciated.
