Hello and Happy new year,
if I create a custom list and I sort it alphabetically are there any "special" rules?

I have a list with the items:
1
2
...
...
9
10.1
10.2
11.1
11.2

now it sorts it like this:

1
10.1
10.2
11.1
11.2
2
...
...
9

Can I influence this by using a different separator like 10-1 ? I tried some but nothing really helped. Maybe I am missing something.

Best regards
waczny

ok but why is it then that C10.1 is before C2? Or even C10 1 comes before C2?
This is how it sorts it alphabetically:

Should it not be A-Z > 0-9 > 10 -19 > etc?

I am confused.
Here it works perfectly fine:

and here in this list it puts 10 before 2
