Hi can anyone help me with a formula or formula's

In column A I have a list of numbers with either 1 or 2 decimal points like so

A1
1.0
2.2.1
1.1
1.1.1
1.2
1.2.1
2.1
2.1.1
2.2

I just want to simply put them from smallest to largest but I'm just going round in circles, so i give up, i've thrown the towel in and have come to you guys/gals to ask for assistance.

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
For 365 how about
++Fluff.xlsm
AB
1
211
32.2.11.1
41.11.1.1
51.1.11.2
61.21.2.1
71.2.12.1
82.12.1.1
92.1.12.2.1
102.22.2

B2:B10B2=LET(r,A2:A10,SORTBY(r,LEFT(r,1),1,MID(r,3,1),1))

Is it a structured table, or just a range?

I wish i knew. It was converted into a table pressing ctrl+t so there's multiple rows and columns with various headings. The particular title heading for all the decimal numbering is in the column titled "I.D" if that helps.

I just realised, that formula can be used, so I deleted my previous post.
Try
++Fluff.xlsm
AB
1
211
32.2.11.1
41.11.1.1
51.1.11.2
61.21.2.1
71.2.12.1
82.12.1.1
92.1.12.2.1
102.22.2
Main
Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
B2:B10B2=INDEX(LET(r,$A$2:$A$10,SORTBY(r,LEFT(r,1),1,MID(r,3,1),1)),ROWS(B$2:B2))
