Use of Groups

Groups are used in the Properties Constructor (PROPCON) to group Cases together. This is done to save space and time spent creating Cases. Several Cases with the same attributes may be reproduced in different Case Types if groups are not used.

The syntax for adding or removing cases from a group is:

>---+--- ADD ------.               .-----------.

    |              |              /            |

    ‘--- REMOVE ---+--- <gid> ---*--- <gid> ---’

                                 |

                                 ‘----->

Note:
Do not delete cases from a group or you will delete them from the Properties database. Use the REMOVE syntax

The element Group has an attribute Function (FUNC) which is a 12-character text string.
