st: Sort each column of a matrix to have the same rank order as another matrix

Subject   st: Sort each column of a matrix to have the same rank order as another matrix

I am trying to construct a new matrix Y that has the reordered elements of
each column of matrix X, to match the rank order of the corresponding
columns of matrix T.

For example:

X	T
6	1
9	-1
2	-2
4	2
7	0

So the ascending order of T is (2, 4, 5, 1, 3)

Therefore, the first element of Y will be the 2nd element of X, the second
the 4th, the third the 5th, the fourth the 1st, and the fifth the 3rd. 

Resulting in:

Y	
9
4
7
6
2


Is there an easy way to reorder the elements of X based on the rank order of
T?

Below is the code I am using for X (hog futures prices) and T (transformed
van der Waerden scores).

Thanks,
Scott
