Re: [libreoffice-users] Add a 'Sort' button to the tops of columns?

Hi :)
The 
Data - Sort
method allows greater sophistication and flexibility and means that you can 
select columns without having to use the tab-key method.  It still has the same 
vulnerability if the data area has not been set or selected.  It might give you 
an opportunity to define the data area but i haven't explored that.
Regards from
Tom :)

I can tell you how to sort a column or columns, but not how to add a 
sort button.

To sort data, first select the data you want to sort then DATA -> SORT.
