Custom Sorting - can you apply it to filters?

I have a column which is Week number (based on WEEKNUM calculation). Excel reads this as a text field and so Week 1 is arranged after Week10 etc. To fix this in the table I created a custom sort list. However when i apply filters to the table, Week 10 is still listed above Week 1, and the same on pivot tables.

 

Is there a way to change this?

    If you return Week Number as

    ="Week " & WEEKNUM(E7,2)

    you may use

    ="Week " & TEXT( WEEKNUM(E7,2), "00" )

    instead
