The attachment he refers to is a scanned PDF image document. The following is a plain text conversion of that document: <QUOTE> JOHN T ALLEN: 20 BLENHEIM COURT: WOOTTON BASSETT: WILTS SN4 8HQ: highfl...@hotmail.com To: us...@openoffice.org May. 26, 14 I guess there are still some computer dinosaurs around, at 65 with cognitive & memory issues, I'm one of them. Hence this what to most may be a simple enquiry email, to me is desperation to find a non tech answer to my questions on items that are annoying whilst using computer applications, in this case what short be a simple action of sorting columns of data in Neooffice. But when I try that, a message on screen (see attachment) comes up saying 'ranges containing merged cells can only be sorted without formats' I may as be an alien visitor, as no understanding what that means or how to correct it! The obvious next step was to see if my version was up to date, but not been able to find that out! To many people finding the name & version of a programme they have, in my case, the version I have, for Neooffice (which I also understand is or part of Openoffce Apache) for my Max OSX 10 6 8 is difficult. In addition I' no good, get easily confused at all the tech jargin in forums, in this case, when I googled saw for Neooffice, or is it Openoffice: http://trinity.neooffice.org/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=4975 All I want is a simple answer to I can use the programme a lot easier.
