Suppose the column in question is PoundValue

Try this:

SET CURRENCY '�' SUFF 2B
CHOOSE vvalue from #VALUES FOR (CTXT('PoundValue')) FROM table.... ORDER BY
PoundValue
SET CURRENCY '�' PREF 2B

This would put the pound symbol AFTER the values, and display as text, but
in order by the amount.  I tried it with CONCOMP in 7.0; I could press 3 to
jump to the first starting with 3, but couldn't press 3,5 to go to 3,500.

It's close, but still not real walkmenu.
