--- Comment #4 from veathako <ve...@progressive.com> ---
I have recreated the issue on windows-7 and Open office 4.0.1. 

Note: The software Ultra edit -32 version: 10.0 has sort feature and it can
sort the text (numeric or alphanumeric) fields based on a set of characters in
the selected text. 

I tried to recreate the issue by using the following scenarios anticipating
that the OO4.0.1 may also sort the text like Ultra Edit software. I am thinking
this is what the issue is the original author is referring to. 

1. Launch open office 4.0.1 writer. 

2. Type the following text in the given specific order. 

T1REP 

T5REP 

T4REP 

T2REP 

T6REP 

T3REP 

3. Selected the above text and navigate to 

Tool > Sort >

Select criteria checkbox “Key1” 

Select Column 2 

Select key type“Alphanumeric” 

Select option“Ascending” 

Click on “OK” 

Following is the sorted order I have received when I did the alphanumeric sort. 

Actual Result 

T3REP 

T6REP 

T2REP 

T4REP 

T5REP 

T1REP
The Open Office software did not sort the way I expected for the above
scenario.
When I tried to sort the text within a table(rows/columns) it worked as
expected which is sorted in the right order.Is the sort functionality in OO
4.0.1 is only intended for the text whithin a table ?
