Hi Carolyn and all,

Off the top of my head you could try filling in the leading zeros so
that numeric and alphabetic ordering coincide. E.g. 

1-xxx
1000- xxx
10000-xxx
2-xx
2000 - xxx
20000 - xx

become

00001 - xxx
00002 - xxx
01000 - xxx
02000 - xxx
10000 - xxx
20000 - xxx

There may be some other setting that will do it without this, but I'm no
Yahoomort expert.

Cheers,

Dumbledad / Tim
