Default Pivot Tables - sorting numbers

When using pivot tables, we have a task number for each job and have tried
various formatting options (text, number). The taks number generally is up
to 3 digits and 1 decimal place. The pivot table sorts the single digits
(1-9)
1.0
10.0
11.0
2.0
20.0
21.0
etc.
Our solution to this was to start the task numbers at 10 and use only
minimum of 2 digits. It's been several versions of Excel since we created
our file and now revamping to meet current needs. Is there a workaround so
we can use 1-9?
