[Solved] New data wont sort

Post by zoe the noob »

At work we have switched from Excel to OOo. We had a database with 10 columns, the header on each has a drop down arrow to select any data entered into that field to sort info.

Entries from Excel still sort, but none of the new rows of info I have added will.
A co-worker uses the same file without this problem.

Sorry if this is basic, but I'm not sure where my settings are different...

Thanks!

It's a bug for new rows in Calc, you should subscribe and vote for that request (up to 2 votes per issue) : Issue 59229 - Autofilter does not recognize added entries.

NB: workaround = remove the AutoFilter and reactivate it.

Will try out the work around soon.
In the meantime I did put in a vote for this issue.
