GridGroupingControl - group one column, sort group using another column

Is there a way to group on one column and then use the values in another column to sort the group?

For instance, if there is a Systems table with a SystemID column and a Rank column, the grouping would occur on SystemID and then Rank would determine the order the SystemID's would be displayed.

Systems

SystemID, Rank
SystemA, 2
SystemB, 1
SystemC, 3

So with the above data, if the sort was ascending, then the ggc would display:

SystemB, SystemA, SystemC

instead of:

SystemA, SystemB, SystemC

I added a Rank as a SortedColumn to the ggc but that did not work.

Thanks,
Greg
