Try typing this into the MessageBox"
delete group "xxx"
this is the only way I seem to be able to delete groups at present.

Method 1: If "Select Grouped" is bolded in LC's toolbar, click it to turn it off. Click any object in the group with the edit tool to select the group. Hit the delete key on the keyboard.
Method 2: Select the group in the Project Browser or the Application Overview, whichever you're using, click the window title bar to bring it to the front, and hit the delete key on the keyboard. If you use the Application Overview you can also right click the group in the overview list and chose Clear from the contextual menu. The Project Browser may have a similar shortcut but I don't use it.
The message box command is also an alternative but less convenient.

Hello Googie85!
I hope we have already been able to delete the group.
Verify that the group has the cantDelete and cantModify properties set to false. Otherwise, LC will not allow you to delete and / or modify the group. If your group has more groups inside, check these properties on all child groups.
Code: Select all
..
set the cant removal of this cd to false
set mod mod of this cd to false
repeat with x = 1 to the number of groups of this cd
set cantDelete of grp x of this cd to false
set this cd's grp x edge modification to false
end repeat
..
