    Default Can't see what Objects make up Groups

    I was wondering if anyone could help me. I have a drawing in AutoCAD LT 2007 that has 10 groups in it , but it won't show me what is in these groups, or let me delete them. Any ideas? I can't find anything that is grouped in the drawing

    Can you zip and post the drawing?

    Can you post your solution? It may help others that may encounter this problem.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    I can, but I think it was the long way round.

    I could view the unnamed groups, but not do anything to them, so I typed in -group, then rename, and renamed each group. After I had done that, I typed -group and un grouped, so I could get rid of the information I didn't need.

    I hope this is understandable, if not let me know and I will try again!!

    PS. This was an old drawing that I had picked up from someone else, and the grouped stuff was no longer needed, so no shouting at me about ungrouping!!

    Thanks for posting your solution. Being this is on LT, this solution may not be the long way round but actually the only way to do it. I don't know as I don't have access to LT.
