Use Parse to change the string

long a = long.Parse(((ListViewItem)x).SubItems[col].Text);
long b = long.Parse(((ListViewItem)y).SubItems[col].Text);

and use a conditional statement

(a < b) ? -1 : ((a > b) ? 1 : 0);

If you multiply the result of any of the tests by -1 you can sort ascending/descending.

Also test for white spaces, return 1 for x and -1 for y to keep the spaces down and out the way, I think.
