          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 75259
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: FILTER Auto filter on imported database range does not
                    work on columns of data type text
          Severity: major
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Windows (All)
          Reporter: gdna7...@hotmail.com
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.2.1.1 rc
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

Steps to reproduce:
* Connect an exiting database.
* Press F4 and drag a query including a field of type text into Cell A1 of a
new spreadsheet file (ods).
* from cell A1 press Ctrl + Shift + End to select the whole range
* Data --> Filter --> Auto Filter
* Select an existing entry from the drop down menu ON A FIELD BEING OF TYPE
TEXT AND INCLUDING NUMBERS. e.g. the string 36000.
Expected behavior:
*Filter applied
Actual behavior
*Nothing is shown (all entries are hidden).

Worth noting:
1.Selecting the whole range and copying it into a new document, the filter is
working as expected.
2. Saving and closing the document --> filter is working. However if you insert
a new query in the document and repeat the above steps, it is not working until
saved, closed and reopened.
3. This is a regression compared to 4.1.5 and prior (I did not install 4.2.0,
since my experience with .0 was seldom good) and the usecase should not be too
seldom for people using base and calc, which is why I classified it as major.

Unfortunately I cannot provide a document, as:
1. As described under "worth noting", it would not show the bug,
2. The documents I experienced this with, are used for work and contain
sensible information.
