Do you really need to use the table directly? Can't you select from it into a cursor, and have that cursor ordered by codigo_pro, designacao?

You can have a temporary index on transform(codigo_pro, "99999999")+designacao, but temporary indexes are a hassle - you have to create them, make sure their names are unique (i.e. no two users trying to create the same index at the same time on the same machine), and you need to take care to delete them later. Much easier if you do something with a cursor - no cleanup, it vanishes with all of its indexes when closed.
