Default Counting Entries

Im trying to count use of paragraphs and in a spreadsheet there is a column
with entries of the form 4.1, 4.2, 4.1.1, 4.10, 4.10.1 a), 5.1, 5.10, 5.10.6
and so on, but it seems like the functions I tried (COUNTIF and SUMPRODUCT,
so far) are not able to differentiate between 4.1 and 4.10. These are all
formatted as text in the spreadsheet. I tried this using a pivot table,
which seems to do the job but I dont want to use one. Any thoughts on how
this can be done?
Thanks a bunch and best regards,
