Obama hating programmer needed for simple program coding. No pay.
I want to convert the WH visitor log to a chronological order instead of alphabetical. The log is vast with many thousands of names and often several dates by each name.

It would be very difficult for me to try to write a program that would parse this data into what I need. I'm simply not experienced enough. I believe an experienced code writer could turn something out rather quick, though.

The data is unfortunately not formatted well. If it were formatted like an Excel document it would be much easier, but they saw fit to format it in as unreadable a way as possible.

The data is already online, available from the WH. Just google WH visitor logs and click on visitor access records. Several files are available for DL. I want data for the yr 2012.

I'm sort of familiar with rudimentary programming, but the data in question is written out in way that leaves me confused as to how I could write a program.

The only data I care about is names and dates.
