Force Version Format

ProjectWise Explorer V8i SelectSeries 4 v8.11.11.559
ProjectWise Administrator V8i Select Series 4 v8.11.11.559

Is there any way to force either numeric or alpha string format on versions as the ProjectWise Administrator? Despite checking off 'Use Numeric String', it will still recognize other formats. It seems the user can write anything they want in the new version field. This just creates confusion and inconsistencies.

Thanks for your help!
