How to convert version number to numerical value

How do I convert the following string value to a numerical value that represents two digits between the dots?

version = 7.10.23.1

I would like for this to be converted to a numeric value:

version = 07102301

The zero before the 7, does not need to show. I just need to be able to perform <> conditional or comparison functions. I appreciate your help.
