Are there any blank cells in the data column of the source data?
Did you include blank rows at the end of the pivot table?

Hi Debra,

I have the same problem - can't group dates (into by month, quarter, or
year). I have reformatd the date column (cells) in date format. Any other
suggestion pls

If there are text entries, or blank cells in the date column, you won't
be able to group the field. If that's the problem, perhaps you could
delete any text, and add a "dummy" date to records with no date.

I do not get a Group By dialog box when I select Group. It adds a group name,
but puts everything in one big group.
