Will is right, Use the resource usage view to get what you want. All the task assigned to a specific resource will be grouped and you can see fields in timescaled fashion such as cost and resources values.
This is better than using the group feature for this situation.
Having had a quick try, I do not think you can do this on the Gantt chart view because MSProject looks at the whole contents of the field, therefore if there is more than one resource in the field it will group it seperately, but you can do it on the Resource Usage view.
The resource usage view will give you the resources and which tasks they are working on, you would then have to group by which ever area, phase or stage that you want.
I find that grouping by assignments is useful, but if you want to group assignments you will have to put the relevent codes into the assignment fields. I would suggest that you do this in the Task Usage View, because it is easier to "copy down" (CTRL D) the relevent codes from the task to the assignment. The code will then show in the resource usage view and you can then group by the assignments.
Im trying to group the task by the same resource so that i can make a proper resource scheduling. As far as i have used MS Project I havent grouped them by resources only by Area, Phase, Stage, & etc. Can you help me?

Thanks!
Would like to help, but need a bit more information.
Are you trying to group the tasks by which resources they are using or trying to group the resources themselves?
