Dear Open Office
Sorry to be contacting you on this, but I seem to be making little headway with
what appears to be just what I need but is way above my head.
Someone here will hopefully know the answers :-)
I imported a .wdb file which was put into Calc in cell “A” on 92 rows.
Did not know we could read wdb files...
I needed to Edit 4 records which I discovered how to do but it left the boxes
highlighted in red. I do not know what this means and have been unable to
remove it.
So the background of the cell is red, just the outline is red?
I expect that "change tracking" is turned on, but I am only guessing:

I want to sort the complete file but found that the “Sort” selection was greyed
out. To me this indicated that some thing else needed to be done first. I tried
“Select All” and many other functions but have yet no luck.
What if you select only the cells that you want to sort? Is the sort
method still greyed out?
I have consulted the “Tutorials” but there I cannot find any reference to my
problems, in desperation I hope you could point me in right direction.
If it is possible that you could assist I would be most grateful.
Regards
David Bath
