I have the need to sort a file of IP addresses on a display as if they had

a leading zero. For example they want to see

192.44.208.119
192.44.208.12
192.44.208.120

to be sorted as

192.44.208.12
192.44.208.119
192.44.208.120

as if the .12 had a leading zero. This is a character field. Any

suggestions? Thanks in advance.
