pivot table grouping
I am trying to group individual date records into quarters. However, I
receive an error message "cannot group that selection". I have reformatted my data source to ensure the dates are formatted as dates. I have searched for missing or blank cells in my source data but have found none. I can't it out! Interestingly, when I go to select the "field settings", a number option is not even displayed which makes me wonder if my data is recoginzed as a date - even though I have reformatted my source data. Help!! |

If you've grouped the field previously, that may be causing the problem.
