[Solved] How do I edit the name of a scenario?

I've checked the OOo Calc help and it mentions two ways to modify a scenario name. The first is through Tools - Scenarios, but that option is grayed-out unless I first select a block of cells. Then once I do, it appears only to offer to create a new scenario for me; no way I can see to modify the name of a pre-existing scenario.

The second way according to the help file is through the Properties context menu command in the Navigator, but I can't find that.

Any help?

The navigator (key F5) has a button to show the list of scenarios for edit and removal. You can also rename the scenario's hidden sheet (that's what a scenario basically is).

Ah, I see now.

Opening the Navigator shows you Sheets, Range Names, Database Ranges, etc. Expanding Sheets shows all scenarios, but right-clicking on them here doesn't offer a Properties option. To get that you have to first click the Scenarios button in the toolbar. That's a bit confusing.

Thanks.
