hah, but, it doesn't really sort them
correctly tho. :)

In my experience, Excel produced results
*something* like this ...

192.168.1.0
192.168.10.0
192.168.100.0
192.168.2.0
192.168.20.0
...etc

Instead of ...

192.168.1.0
192.168.2.0
192.168.10.0
192.168.20.0
192.168.100.0
...etc

        "sort -t . -n -k1,1, -k2,2 -k3,3 -k4,4"
        
        Wow. I dunno in excel I just click the sort button :)
