You'll have to edit the database using Microsoft Access in order to do that.

I realize that and do have Microsoft Access on my cpu. Where I am confused is how to manually add a parent group to the group table in Access. The parent column will only allow me to use the pre-defined group names and I want to add to the list.

I got this answer from the Autodesk discussion groups so I hope this will help you. I don't use the keynote feature very much so I don't get into alot of heavy editing of it.
" The Groups table defines the parent hierarchy for the keynote groups. The Parent field must
contain an entry in the "Group" field which "links" this child group to its parent. The root is specified as "". There is a help topic called "Creating and Modifying Keynote Databases" that provides an overview on how to edit the keynote database. "
I've also included a zip file I found on the discussion boards that has a rough tutorial and sample of a custom keynote Database that might be of assistance to you.
Hope this helps
