I need to have five of objects each with the exact same properties, functions and scripts on 20 consecutive cards
but they should not appear on the first card. Can I do this? Thanks.

Sure, I take it you've grouped the controls? And set the "Behave like background" property?
You can select the group on card 1 then Object>Remove Group

Many thanks Simon, it works for any new cards. Can I somehow use the group
on any existing cards?
Thanks again

Just copy and paste.

Do NOT copy and paste, but "PLACE" these groups on all cards you need them!
Use a script:
...
place bg "name of group here" onto card X
...
Or use the menu in Livecode:
Object: Place group -> Name of gropup
