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.
