I have a spreadsheet that has a unique identifier field containing eight
digit numbers separated by decimals. Each subset references a specific field on another sheet. I would like to sort by this identifier, but when I do, my decimals sort improperly (for my current need). They sort in the following order: 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.10 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2 I would like them to sort numerically by the last number. Is there a way to do this, or an easier way to format this field? Thanks for the help. |
