Sorting columns with number

At present, if numbers are in a format including thousand separator, any sorting is done alphabetically and not by value. This really is a real handicap when working in applications with lots of numbers. Sorting a numericl column ought to be numeric....ought it not ?!?

    This happens if the field you entered the number in is a text field.

    If that is the case, add a computed column with the formula @texttonumber(yourfieldhere)

    Can't say I've ever experienced this but there may be an edge case?

    I just double checked to make sure but if the number is a number then it will be sorted numerically regardless of the column formatting.

    Are you sure your not trying to sort a text item and expecting it to be sorted numerically?
