Created attachment 130720 [details] screenshot of “sorted” spreadsheet Damn! this is the most user unfriendly bug report system i’e encountered in 40 years (and I’m an IT professionsal that designs systems) obviously designed with no actual user input! So, the problem i’m actually trying to report: The sort criteria for text fields is inconsistent on one page in a spreadsheet a text field comprisd of numeric zeroes is sorted first on another page in the same worksheet, text with leading zeroes is sorted second.and in one sheet, text, in ccluding null values, is sorted mixed, with text with leading zeroes intermixed with null text and text with no leading zero characters.] trying to attach a screen shot Holy Crap! I can’t upload a screen shot ???? I have to give you a link to publicly access my computer or my dropbox? This is the most out of touch bug report system I’ve seen !!! I would have thought you would have beenon the leading edge of customer UI / experience Booooo!!
Best if you can "add an attachment" of a sample Calc .ODS document (yes, depending on how you reach the BZ submission you may or maynot have the option while creating the report, but trivial to add to an established issue). What values have you set on each of the columns in your screen clip? Sorting will be dependent on the cell value type set for the column on the sheet. Please provide a sample document (or just some sheets with values redacted) with column types set and the sort issues you claim. Sorry, but as is we can't do a thing with this report.
