Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.dll)

Syntax

Function Group ( _
    Start As Object, _
    End As Object, _
    By As Object, _
    Periods As Object _
) As Object

Parameters

  • Start
    Type: System.Object

    The first value to be grouped. If this argument is omitted or true, the first value in the field is used.

  • End
    Type: System.Object

    The last value to be grouped. If this argument is omitted or true, the last value in the field is used.

  • By
    Type: System.Object

    If the field is numeric, this argument specifies the size of each group. If the field is a date, this argument specifies the number of days in each group if element 4 in the Periods array is true and all the other elements are false. Otherwise, this argument is ignored. If this argument is omitted, Microsoft Office Excel automatically chooses a default group size.

  • Periods
    Type: System.Object

    An array of seven Boolean values that specify the period for the group, as shown:

    1 - Seconds

    2 - Minutes

    3 - Hours

    4 - Days

    5 - Months

    6 - Quarters

    7 - Years

    If an element in the array is true, a group is created for the corresponding time; if the element is false, no group is created. If the field is not a date field, this argument is ignored.
