<xsl:sort> using a derived element


I'd like to sort using ItmDesc, but only a substring of it.  Here's my sort:

<xsl:sort select="substring-after(ItmDesc,'-')" order="ascending"/>

Here's an example of the data, I want to sort Spokane, not 214-Spokane:

<ItmDesc>214-Spokane</ItmDesc>

The sort statement above does not do it.  How do I do it?

Thanks,

Edith
