Unfortunately some further fiddling showed that the calc sorting function is
now quite messy. So the opposite problem is also happening:
if you select for ordering some data including text data in the first row, the
sort command will by default activate the "data contain headers in the firs
row" option; and that's OK.
However, if you do NOT want the first row to be considered as headers, because
it actually contains data just as the other rows, you deactivate that option,
choose a column as sorting criteria, and then the first row is excluded from
the sorting anyway (which is WRONG!).
This bug can lead to MAJOR problems if you do not know it and do some sorting
operations (very commonplace in a spreadsheet) without carefully examining the
results. This morning for example I risked publishing messy examination results
for my students because of this.
Actually, if you use calc frequently recurring to sorting, the program is now
quite unusable.
