Define Named Group Dialog Box

When you use specified order grouping, you have to use the Define Named Group dialog box to create the groups and to specify the values in each when you group in a specific order.

This dialog box appears when you click either the New button, or the Edit button on the Specified Order tab of the Insert Group dialog box or Chart Sort Order dialog box.

Group Name Type the name you want to use for the group into this box. By default the name will appear in the group header section.

There is a tab for the named group in which you can specify the selection criterion. Select a type of selection criterion from the list. To add another selection criterion, click the New tab.

Group Selection Choose the grouping criteria. Depending on the option you choose, you may need to select field data from the drop down list.
Browse Data Click this button to browse the field data. You can select data from the dialog box that opens and click the Paste button to paste data to the Selection list. Click the Done button to return to the Define Named Group dialog box.
Tabs The tabs display the fields whose values you are using to create the group. The tabs are all related to the same group, and each tab relates to a specific portion of the query used to create the group. When you click a tab, the appropriate portion of the query appears in the dialog box. If you want to expand the query, click the New tab.
