Order by Bulleted Numbers

SelvaganapathyJun 9 2010 — edited Jun 10 2010
I have a column called reference number (Datatype - Varchar2) in one of the tables which as values, such as bulleted numbers Example as below

1
1.1
1.1.1
1.1.2.a
1.1.2.b
1.2

Is there an easy way to order by the rows, by such a column which is a bulleted value.
