Default grouping

how exactly does this grouping function work? does it only group those
specific cells?

the reason i ask is that i have cells grouped, but now i want to sort them.
and the grouping doesn't move with the data, it just stays. is there a way i
can get the grouping to follow the data as it is sorted?

thanks,
steve

Are you talking about merged cells? Or are you talking about Data--Group
and Outline?

Then you should ungroup your cells before you sort again. Subtotals,
grouping/outline, and autofilters are really designed for temporary use.
