Changing Sort

When I want to sort my lists (not numbered, but have hierarchy numbers, it will list them as follows:

1.1
1.1.1
1.1.1.1
1.2.
1.2.3.4.5
1.23.235
1.3
1.3.
1.34.24
1.5.1
1.52

Last time I checked, 23 is greater than 3 and 34 is greater than 52, etc.
Is there a way that I can Sort this correctly? I sort by Text, because Number and Date won't work (as the hierarchies also have words after them).

Thank you in advance,
