we have a drawing from another firm and it has 100+ groups in it. is there a way to explode the groups in mass without having to go through the object group dialog box everytime?

Try this bit of code.

(repeat (length (setq gdict (dictsearch (namedobjdict) "ACAD_GROUP")))
  (if (eq (caar gdict) 3)
    (command ".-GROUP" "_E" (cdar gdict))        
  )
(setq gdict (cdr gdict))
)
