Thanks for your comments, Alex and others. One thing I didn't say is that
when I edit my original reports in OO, their hidden controls do NOT show a
'Sorting' control listed at all, and yet they run perfectly in OO apparently
without such a control. Since there is ALSO no 'Sorting' control listed when
I edit my legacy reports in LO (yet they FAIL to run), I wonder does this
mean it is NOT an IMPORT problem, as Alex suggests, but rather that a NEW
hidden control ('Sorting') is required in LO (but not in OO)? I note that
when I create a brand-new report in LO v5.2 using the legacy report designer
(with the Report Builder Extension disabled), the hidden control 'Sorting'
IS added, and the report runs as normal! (That's in fact how I discovered
the work-around I reported above.) Before I lodge, as suggested, another Bug
Report (under the Writer component), I'm interested in what others (with
more technical knowledge than I have) think about this. - Fred
