Sorting data

I select a range, click sort, get the message “Ranges containing merged cells can only be sorted without formats” and nothing happens. What should I do?

If unmerging the cells is not an option?
Could you upload/attach an example or explain a bit better what you are trying to sort and how. Thanks.

you may want to change to the tab ‘options’ in the sort dialog and uncheck ‘include formats’,

or for further info use the search engine of your choice ‘libreoffice ranges containing merged cells can only be sortet without formats’, our find this: similar question, or support that: enhancement request
