Sannyasin,

I feel your pain! If I understand the problem correctly there is a solution. :-)

FIrst copy the stack as it is and leave the original in a safe place just incase this doesn't work.

There are two possible ways to deal with this.

1. Go to the Second deepest nested grp using the edit grp btn of the rev tools bar. Select the group you want to remove. Make sure that grps selection handles are showing. (You are not editing it yet.) Cut the grp from its current owner. Select the browse tool. Now select the pointer and click the main group. Click the edit button of the Rev toolbar. Paste the wayward group.

2. This method requires that you disassemble all the groups containing your wayward group. Go to the SECOND deepest nested grp using the edit grp btn of the rev tools bar. Select the group you want to remove. Make sure that grp's selection handles are showing AND the no other objects or groups are selected. Now click the group button of the tools menu. When this btn is used with a group it ungroups all the objects. to dthis as many times as you need to reduce the mess to individual objects. Then reassemble your stack.

Before you do this be sure to copy any group scripts that you have written for the grp. Once you ungrp it that script will transcend this plain of exsistence. :-)

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Steve

GRP: Base controls

                Field Last Name
                btn: "Listing"
                etc. (some 40+ more controls)

Now, undoubtedly my ineptitude created this situation, but it seems
that somehow the interface shouldn't allow one to get into such a
fix... or at least provide an easy way out. If one tries to edit the
interior group and paste these back into "Base controls" group... all
data on all cards is lost, even though Base Controls is placed on all
cards..
