No, it highlights the entire table and the wiz asks me Sort By and shows
only the text of the first (of two) header lines as the choice. Send the
file?

Does it work if you don't select any rows? If the insertion point is in
the
table and you use Table | Sort, the results should be as expected (all
rows
sorted except the heading rows).

In sorting a Word 2000 table, where one or more rows are marked as
repeating
headers, the sort (Table | Sort) does not work properly unless I have
highlighted all the rows but the header row(s). Is this intended?
Seems
that step shouldn't be necessary. Thanks.
