After a test trying to sort the datagrid I change my mind to use
dgLine instead of dgIndex.
The final result is:

on FillInData pDataArray
  put pDataArray["LastName"] & \
     comma & space & pDataArray["FirstName"] & space &
     pDataArray["MiddleName"] into tCurrentName
  set the text of field "Name" of me to tCurrentName
  put the dgLine of me into tTheLine
  put (the dgLine of me - 1) into tThePreviousLine
  if (tThePreviousLine > 0) then
     put GetDataOfLine(tThePreviousLine, "LastName") into tPreviousName
  end if
  if ((first char of tCurrentName is not first char of tPreviousName)
or (tThePreviousLine is 0)) then
     set the visible of group "spacer" of me to true
  else
     set the visible of group "spacer" of me to false
  end if
end FillInData


I've uploaded a lab stack here:

This is a very simple datagrid. Instead to have a "spacer" group, it
has a button shown or not. Code is in the form behavior script
