create alert when in sheets are grouped
 
Can anyone advise how to create an alert when sheets inadvertently remain
grouped, (after the purpose for grouping has been completed) so data is not
unknowingly changed across all worksheets.

create alert when in sheets are grouped
 
How is the computer to figure out the user's intent (ie - how will it know
when the purpose for grouping is completed)?

If you have formulae that you don't want overwritten, you can lock these
cells (Format/Cells/Protection) and unlock the cells you want the users to be
able to modify. Then, apply worksheet protection (Tools/Protection/Protect
Sheet). The locked cells then should not be overwritten.

Also, if the data is important - it should be backed up.
