I have a repeat loop to clone a field and want to
group them.

Is there a way to "add to group xxx" or something similar?

If there is it could be put into the loop as they're created.

Hi.

You likely want to look at the "copy" command, especially with its "into group" variant. You may also want to look at the "last" keyword, in case your loop does not handle this action explicitly.

I don't think that the copy command allows for re-naming.

The "selectedObject" function looks interesting as it produces
a list which seems to be a requirement for grouping.

What do you think?

If you keep one field in the group the clone command will clone within the group.

I do not understand.

You can create a single control, however you do it, and group it. You can then copy any other control into that group.

Cloning a control from a group member will place that new control in that group.

The options are wide open. What is it you need to do?

What I want to do is exactly as you describe.

So much to learn, so little time.
