There is something wrong with the file. Even when I paste
data into a new file, it somehow corrupts the new file and
Data >Sort does not work. It does, however, work in a virgin file.
The query on the forum actually relates to sorting a number
of rows, all in random order. It seems to be impossible to
sort a number of such rows simultaneously, so I wanted to
record a macro sorting of one row and adapting it to sort
rows in a selection one by one.
Now I have another chore - transferring data from the file
(only a test
document) to another file without transferring whatever error
is preventing the file from functionning correctly. :-\
Any chance you could file an issue for that and post link?

I should have thought of that. I've overwritten the old file.
An older version, restored from backup, is working satisfactorily.
Now I don't know what the problem was. Because it's a test document, I
have been using it for a variety of purposes and cannot possibly retrace
my steps. :-[
I've become used to my test file going awry occasionally. Next time it
happens, I'll think about filing an issue. I suspect it's really too
idiosyncratic to be worth anyone's time.
One thing I noticed about the version that wasn't working is that the
"Statistics" tab in File >Properties was missing. I wanted to see
whether I had at some stage experimented with a file link which had left
a hidden file.
Anyway, the whole mess has gone into a black hole. Once you delete on
Linux, that's it.
