Description djenner 2003-10-21 15:32:58 UTC 
Using a table created in OOo's own dBase type file, I created a report from a 
subset of table fields using the report wizard.  The report was not correctly 
sorted by the lastname field, though this was specified in report wizard. Data 
was reported in exactly the ("natural") order it was entered into the table, 
without any change in order.  This happened several times, trying different 
schemes, in the absence of crystal-clear documentation.

The data is correctly sorted >within< the table, using the supplied sort 
filters.  The same functionality also works from within the input-form document. 
The data exports (e. g., to Calc) in the expected way, and as sorted, when 
dragged to the sheet from the opened table.

This suggests a problem in the report-writer proper.
