Simple Grouping Query

Hoping someone can help.

After coding and grouping all my activities, P3 doesn’t organize the way I want, e.g, under the Construction hammock in my schedule it shows the following summaries in alphabetical order:
Equipment Installation
Fabrication
Negotiation
Pipework Fabrication
Test & Commission
I want the order to be chronological, i.e Negotiation, Fabrication, Pipework Fabrication, Installation, Test & Commission.
Although I haven’t completed the scheduling, I have sorted the activities beneath each summary by "Early Start" and shown the first activity under negotiation to be the first chronologically, but it still sorts the summaries alphabetically
Any ideas?

Thanks
JP

    Maybe I am not quite understanding your query, but here goes. When you were setting up your codes/values/descriptions there is a column on the left showing order. You use this to show the sequence you require by numbering from 1,2,etc.
    This will then allow you to achive your requirements.
    Hope this helps,

    George Stewart is right. you can also set up activity code for sorting (eg ORD1,ORD2)
