If I want to get Oracle to sort strings (roughly) like Microsoft (excel, msaccess etc) I have to do something like:

select *
from SPD.DOWNHOLE_FACILITY
order by
upper(
Replace(
translate(
FACILITY_ID,'_','+')
,'-',''))

(and this is only a start … i.e. caters for letter, numbers, hyphens, underscores but not much more ..!) (I don't know how to get MSAccess to sort like oracle ..)
