------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Mar 19 10:03:44 -0800 2005 ------- Hello, I have the following 'problem' with openoffice. I have a large collection of data that I import from a CSV file. The format is something like this, as an example: name,age,height,weight,salary,etc... I would like to make a series of charts about the people, and I would like them to all be sorted. So there would be one chart with all the people and their ages, sorted by age. Then another chart with the names and heights, sorted by height, and so on. Currently, this seems to be impossible, because the moment you sort the cells on one column, all the charts change and so you can never have all the carts nicely sorted. I suppose it would be possible to have multiple data collections, like so: name,age name,age namge,age name,weight name,weight name,weight But that gets complicated, messy, and worst of all is difficult to import from a CSV file. Perhaps the best way around this would be some way to unlink chart sorting from actual cell sorting. Does that make sense? Thankyou for your time, David N.
