------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Aug 9 18:45:06 -0700 2005 ------- I think the Sort command should be split up in four. "Range contiguous cells" "Sort all" "Sort range" - whit a "No range" message. "Sort continguous cells" This way the user would never be confused by a new range appearing when she activaes Sort. All my Sort commands would be instantly predictable. The Sort with auto range would _always_ sort the continguous cells by the cursor - it doesn't even have to change the range to do this! Actually like in Excel the current Sort will often require the user to EITHER look through the spreadsheet and try to guess what will be ranged prior to using it OR open, then close the sort window and then look through the spreadsheet to find out what was ranged - all becuase currently Sort can choose a range outside of view and it _locks_ scroll bars while it's open so that the user can not scroll around and see the new range. So with my idea to split it up in three it will not only make it more straight forward but make the Sort locking of the view less of a problem and make the auto range available for other uses.
