WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The customer is using chemical compound names within documents. The compound names have numbers as part of the word itself (e.g., mc9, mc75, pf10, pf100, etc.) The customer cannot use spaces between the letters and numbers. When the customer sorts the chemical compound names, WordPerfect is not looking at the whole number within the name (it reads the first number only) and the compounds are out of order. The compound mc9 should come before mc75, and so forth. Is this working as designed? Solutions: The customer is using an alphanumeric sort. This problem is happening because the program is designed to sort the file in this manner. The customer needs to use a numeric sort instead.
