One thing that confuses me a lot is that he says that they won't change order. If he typed ”Tue” and then ”Wed”, they SHOULDN'T change order, should they? ”T” comes before ”W” and Tuesday comes before Wednesday, so why would it change order no matter if we do a date sort or an alphabetical sort? Well, unless he want to sort them in reverse order, of course… Kind regards Johnny Rosenberg ジョニー・ローゼンバーグ -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
