I want to take a single list of part numbers, such as:

8262, 8B20, 101, 2B111, 8A22

And sort it alpha-numerically, so the resulting list would be something like:

101, 2B111, 8262, 8A22, 8B20

Is this possiable within MS Word? If so, at which version does this feature
become available?

This can be done in any version of Word:
1. Select all of the part numbers, and click on Edit | Replace |
Find what: type a comma and a space | Replace with: click on More |
Special | Paragraph mark | Replace all. This puts each part number on
a separate line.
2. Select the list of part numbers, and click on Table | Sort |
choose sort options | OK. This sorts the part numbers.
3. Select the sorted list of part numbers, and click on Edit |
Replace | Find what: click on More | Special | Paragraph mark |
Replace with: type a comma and a space | Replace all. This puts the
part numbers back together on the same line, with each part number
separated by a comma and a space.
