HI carlom_iptech,
Text values can not use the numeric mode as the column sort order.
For your scenario, you can extract the number value part to create a new calculate column to use it as 'sort order' of your colum or create new table with raw field values and index field.
Then you can use 'sort by column' property to setting the column sort order.Regards,
