tables

[ruth]

I have typed a table. When I sort I get duplicate entries. Why?

Also, I have duplicate entries at the end of the table that have been
"lined-out" and I can't get rid of them.

Please help!

You have turned on Tracked Changes. When the sort moves entries, it's actually
deleting them from one place and inserting them in another, and each of those
operations is tracked.

First you have to turn off Tracked Changes (Ctrl+Shift+E). Then you have to
accept all the changes in the document. See
