This problem seems to be only applicable to Office 2019 not 2011.

Scenario: 3 column table to define legal definitions. Column 1 numbered. Column 2 Word - example Architect - Column 3 definition of Architect. Simple right?

Note there are no page breaks in Table - all one uninterrupted simple table.

So you add definitions ad hoc and when complete select entire table and sort by Column 2 alphabetically. In Office 2011 this works 100%.

Office 2019 - All hell breaks loose.
It adds exclamation marks in Column 2 example "Architect"
It duplicates and in some cases triplicates rows so you will get Architect 2-3 times.

You can try what you like - select Header No Header the lot - still does this every single time.

On DropBox I access same file via MacAir 2011 and it works 100%.

Any ideas Guys please????
