I want to be able to hide/unhide rows (or group them, whichever works better) based on heading styles & heading order. I've tried using an .Autofilter technique but very quickly realised its dangers if people dont use subtotals as sums & major information was missed because of that method in the past.

Headings are always in Column AV, FirstCell is always BA36. the space between headers can be dynamic depending on content section

I want it to work as follows:
Everything visible & hide pressed: hide everything below lowest header found & keep all section headers, when pressed again, hide the bottom most heading & work its way up. & opposite for show button.

Ive tried to modify a code that existed previously for only 2 Header sections, to include a 3 Heading section but its a little buggy in the scenario where Header 1 & Header 2 are shown & hide is pressed. I want it to show only Header 1, but it unhides everything.

I have a few headers in my worksheet but i need to make sure i select headers 1, 2 or 3 only & live with not being able to see the other headers & have it bug out in one section. it would be nice to have this replicated across n number of headers used in the sheet, by picking on the style name defined at the start of this code.

Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

VBA Code:
Sub ShowHide_partial()
Dim FirstCell As Range

Const Header1Style As String = "Hdr1"
Const Header2Style As String = "Hdr2"
Const Header3Style As String = "Hdr3"
Const FakeStyle As String = "This is a fake style"

On Error GoTo TheEnd

    Application.StatusBar = "Hiding/showing rows: please wait..."



    Set FirstCell = Range("BA35")
    Do While FirstCell.Style <> Header1Style
        Set FirstCell = FirstCell.Offset(1, 0)
        If FirstCell.Row > Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row Then
            GoTo TheEnd
        End If
    Loop

    If Application.Caller = "ShowButton" Then 'show button pressed
        Application.StatusBar = "Unhiding rows: please wait..."
        
        Select Case SectionStatus(FirstCell, Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Offset(-1, 0), Header1Style, Header2Style, Header3Style)
            Case 1 'a
                Call CycleSection(FirstCell, Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell), 3, Header1Style, Header2Style, Header3Style)
