You will find all these items under "Sheet".  The built-in help seems to be
out-of-date.

This upgrade has destroyed the functionality of a spreadsheet I utterly
depend upon throughout my day.

So far, here is what I've discovered, in a mere few minutes working with
it, and this is just on the main menu ("file, edit", etc.):

* INSERT: missing - "Cells, Rows, Columns, Sheet" - LO Help says they are
there. Look at "Inserting rows", etc. But they are not.
* EDIT: missing - the "Fill > Series" function. Again, LO help says it's
there - Look at "filling;cells, automatically". But it's not.

This is a disaster for me. I'm reverting to previous version, just so I can
get my work done.


Graham's right of course. In fact, it takes less than a minute to find the information in the online release notes.

BUT - I do have to sympathise with the OP's situation; things really shouldn't move around like this without warning the hapless user. Zero-order solution: how about a simple link from the 'Help' menu to the release notes, plus a popup on first running a new version to remind the user?
