[Bug 1389858] Re: Libreoffice calc 4.2.7-0ubuntu1 not updating references after sort

 

@Manuel Iglesias Alonso
Both LO 4.1.6.2 and Excel 2013 will change B7=Customer1 after sorting. The issue is with your spreadsheet NOT with Calc’s sorting function. I have attached an example of how to correctly design a sortable spreadsheet to meet your desired goals. By using a lookup function, this spreadsheet will work in all spreadsheet software with default settings.

Please consider using other resources such as forums and Ask LO/Ask
Ubuntu  instead of issue trackers for help. Posting bug reports for
software your unfamiliar with just adds noise to the development
process.
