Order in barchart

Sorry if this is a FAQ -- I checked the archives and help files, but was
stumped.

In the data T3 (provided below) the values are sorted from lowest to
highest.

If I use barchart in the trellis library, the bars are arranged by factor
order of the labels (1,10,11,12,etc.).
Would it be possible to have the bars arranged from highest to lowest in
terms of the values (2.65, 2.66, 2.73, etc.) as it is done in barplot?
I would like to use barchart instead of barplot because of some of the
additional features of the lattice library.

Thanks,

Paul
