Re: open office software SPREADSHEETS
Dear Alan and David, I finally got it. I highlighted all the rows by scrolling from top to bottom in col A. Row numbers were highlighted. Clicked on data-sort and voila, it worked.

Re: open office software SPREADSHEETS
Dear David, I have been to the link you provided via Google . No mention of SORT. Also I have never seen the TABLE 1 title appear on a spreadsheet. Perhaps it’s from an older version. I am now going to check out Alan’s utube presentation.
