Hi

The "top 10" filter works only on values. You can insert a column in which the
CODE function is used to get a numeric code for the first character in a text
string.

First, to ignore the difference between uppercase and lowercase, the cell is
converted (LOWER function)

Codes corresponding to the aphabet are growing. They are multiplied by -1 so
that A is before B.

This workaround is limited because it only takes into account the first letter
of the cell. I made ​​this proposal without testing but it seems that however
it may give a good result (see attached example)

Go further: in the example calculations in column B are masked by the use of a
custom cell style.
That said, the numbers are always displayed when selecting the filter so it may
not be necessary

Regards
Pierre-Yves
