We have some data in custom fields, that does not fit any of the 'standard' fields of Addressbook entries, and my requirement to users to precede the numbers with leading zeros, for the sorting by that column to work, has been not entirely understood either... ( a fitting example : datacenter rack / grid / shelf / switch / port number designation: all fields up to say switch number can actually contain a-z,A-Z; but port is in our usage, _just_ numbered 1..X where x is usually 12, 24 or 48. we have rack/grid/shelf/switch numbers in 'selectors' but the port number is a text field, and it's not funny to see port numbers sorted alphabetically like 1,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,2,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,3,30, etc.) Unless you can advise of a js snippet to automatically fill in leading zeros ?
