What you are illustrating is not alphabetic, but numeric sorting. In
that case you should have your items named A001, A002... A010, ...A100
(if the numbers do not exceed 999). The usual problem with alphabetic
sorting is national characters, where in some languages, letters with
accents have a special place in the alphabet, in other languages they do
not have one.

A friend suggested I try OpenOffice.org to be able to do a true alpha
numeric sort that I am not able to do in Excel.
I am not sure how to do that. Using the icons at the top of the
browser window, I am not getting what I would like.
I want A1 - A100 to sort that way rather than A13, A14, A2.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Amalia
