sorting by adding leading 0 to small numbers

[PLUCKYHD]

Is there are way to within studio not externally add a leading 0 to strings like 1 thru 9. so when sorting it will sort

01
02
..
09
10

instead of
1
10
2

I guess I am looking for a sort method that does this thanks

Where is the data coming from? Can you generate it as an array of integers instead of an array of strings? Integers sort numerically; strings sort lexically (i.e. as text, not as numbers). So if you want them treated as numbers, store them as numbers rather than as text.

ok thanks for the advice I will change them to integers not a big problem.
