Default ALPHA/NUMERICAL SORT

Assume your data in A1:A7

create a helper column
In B1: =LEFT(A1)&TEXT(MID(A1,2,99),"0000")
copy down to B7

Select both column and sort by column B. When you done, delete the helper
column

How do we sort Alpha Numerical in the same manner as we count?
EX: H1, H2, H9, H10, H100, H500, H1004, etc...
Excell will sort as H1, H10, H100, H1004, H2, H500, H9
Our project requires the different sorting as stated.
Any Help?
