Issue with sorting by another column

Hi guys,


I am struggling to enable sorting or column Category by column Category_Order. I did such sorting numerous times before without any issue but this time I cannot proceed.

As you can see, each category have its unique Category_Order number. The column Category_Order is formatted as whole number.

Thank you for any help

There's something a little odd about the Category_order column.  Numbers are right-justified in data view and they usually have a slightly different font applied.

Is this some strange setting I don't know about or has something gone wonky with the column/datatype?
