Default how to display item numbers that may contain letters

Using Excel 2003. My item column are refrence numbers to items I am
tracking. Most are straight numbers but some also cntain a leter. (Ex.
204,205,205L, 206K etc.)

How do I format the column so that when sorted 205L shows up right after
205? Currently it will sort the straight numbers fine but the ones with
letter qualifiers will show up at the bottom of the column.
