I do not know whether Solr has any config facility to incorporate a custom Lucene sorting class. I tried to look at the Lucene code to see if I could figure out how/where the sorting happens, but I couldn't decipher it. ASCII wouldn't give you the result you want, though -- it sorts numbers before letters, and you want them after. You would likely need some VERY custom Lucene sort code ... but like I said above, I do not know if Solr has a way to plug that in. Thanks, Shawn
