even when i copy and paste to a new worksheet it still holds onto the group
status so won't allow me to sort the data.
 
"Group" can apply to worksheets which have been grouped together
(easily done by holding the CTRL key and clicking on another sheet
tab). To get rid of this setting, right-click on a sheet tab and
select Ungroup sheets.

It could also apply to a number of columns in the same sheet which
have been grouped together. To get rid of this setting you should
highlight the offending columns then click on Data | Group and Outline
| Ungroup.

Then save the file so that you won't have the same problem next time
you open it.

Hope this helps.
