Please don't SHOUT.
You will need to convert the table to text using a tab to separate the entry
in each cell, then use a wildcard replace to replace the space before the
street number with a tab, the convert back to a table which should now have
the street numbers in a column by themselves so that you can sort by the
street and then by the number in the street.
If you are not familiar with Wildcard searching and replacing, see the
article “Finding and replacing characters using wildcards†at:
