complex sorting formula or macro needed

[Geo]

Hi.
I need some formula or macros that will sort in a complex way, the
result should be sorted first alphabetic order than in numeric order,
if it contains dash “-“after dashes in numeric order.
Presently I am doing it manually and using great time using excel sort
function 2003 but as you guess excel sorting is not the way I want,
Many thanks to whoever shares this defy.
