And now you want to sort by the part 0109?

Add a scripted custom column and use e.g. this script (for this special case):
Code: Select all
return gettoken(<cc_base>, 2, "_");
Then you can use that column to sort

Then you change to a more appropriate script:
return gettoken(gettoken(<cc_base>, 3, "_"), 1, "-");
