If I "Sort by Location", numbers below 100 are located as if they had an imaginary 0 at the end. eg.
instead of sorting like this:
98
99
100
980
990

it sorts like this:
100
980
98
990
99

I know I can go back and add leading zeros to the first 99 locations, but I shouldn't have to.

Why sort by Location in the first place? To find typos, for one example.

Location is an alphnumeric field. The way it sorts at present is correct. If you want to use only numbers then you must include leading zeros.
