If you closed without saving, the original pre-sorted file should be
available . . . rather than close the spreadsheet, try to open a second
copy of it (read only message will appear). Hopefully, your information
will be there - just save the read only with a new file name.
As for backup, go to OpenOffice Help - OpenOffice Calc, find. Search
term: Backup.
Hope these suggestions help . . .

and was unable to undo it. Isnt there an automatic back up in openoffice?

Hopefully, you did not save it after sorting . . .
Did you try Edit, Undo?

Hello,
I use the open office spreadsheet for work. Today I went to the data tab,
hit the sort tab, column A, ascending…then ok (or whatever is says to begin the
process).
I have certain rows highlighted, when I sorted the spreadsheet, the columns were still highlighted, but all the data was gone! Help! I use this spreadsheet for work. It has all of my clients names, contact info and notes listed! How do I retrieve this information?
Thank you
