Default Repeat sorting with F4 in 2007

Hi,

when I was using excel 2003, I could repeat a sorting order on comparable
data using the F4-function.

E.g. I sorted data in 2 columns based on the values in column B for example
(from high to low). Then I could select other data and just press F4 to
repeat the same sorting order.

Has this feature been removed from excel 2007, because I can't repeat a
sorting action?

The F4 key has lost much of its functionality in Excel 2007 charts. It used
to repeat everything done in a trip to a formatting dialog, but now at best
it remembers only the latest action. Hardly a timesaver anymore.
