> problems reported in issue 60681:
> - known numeric sort order problem from this issue here 

Confirmed: sort by "Numeric" key fails unless cell format is also numeric
(i.e. problem reported in this issue, 49629, is still present)

Note: sorting numbers by "Alphanumeric" key does not sort by the number value.
It may produce the expected order for the 'Sorting problems in tables.odt' part
1 case, but only because the numbers in column 1 all have one digit. If you
change 3 to 33, and sort by column 1 "Alphanumeric", it will fall between 2 and 
4.

The only workaround for the problem in this issue (49629) is to assign a numeric
number format to the cell data.

Confirmed. Sort by either "Numeric" or "Alphanumeric" key, with either Text or
Number/General number format, does not result in correctly ordered rows.

Sorting of simple "set variable" "var=n" fields does not sort numerically
either, even when the field has a numeric format.

Confirmed. Sort descending works; ascending does not.

Sorting the table contents as text paragraphs (i.e. copied out of the table)
works for both directions.

These were confirmed using OOo 2.0.4rc3 [680m5(Build:9073)] under Fedora Linux 
5.

*** Note ***
I think something weird may be happening. As I was trying different combinations
of formats and sort options, sorting that had failed previously started working.
Restarting OOo and repeating the test went back to the previous failing
behavior, so the problem may not be 100% reproducible, or I may simply be 
confused.
