Default Grouping entries in a catalog

I'm cataloging a billion pieces of paper. In some instances, I want separate
entries for each piece of paper, but want to keep each entry together with
those associated with a particular file. (I'm working with someone else's
document, so can't make structural changes, but hoping there's a way to
accomplish this anyway.)

The columns with which I'm working a
Source | Document | Type | etc.

What I have is a pendaflex file within which are five manilla folders. I'd
like to do an entry for the Pendaflex as well as entries for each folder.
Then I'd like to group these together so when a sort is done, the files will
stay together.

I'm not working in my office, so don't have access to my usual reference
materials, so I'm turning to y'all in hopes of a quick response. Is this
something I can accomplish with the Group function? (I've never used it, so
not familiar with its capabilities and limitations.)

If Group won't work, is there some other function that will be easy to apply
and use. THere are unknown numbers of people who may be working with this
document before we're through.

Thanks for your help!
