Hi there

You could always make a button on one stack that groups all buttons on 
"yourStack" and sets the background to true using this script.

on mouseUp
   repeat with i=1 to the number of controls of card 1 of stack "yourStack"
   put the long ID of control i of cd 1 of  stack "yourStack"&&"and"&space 
after theControls
end repeat
delete word -1 of theControls
put "group"&&theControls into toDoList
do toDoList
set the backgroundbehavior of the last group of cd 1 of stack "yourStack" 
to true
end mouseUp


If you wanted the button on the same stack then you could always set that 
button to hide after execution.

see revonline - user - nijinsky - and the stack "group all fields via button"

Cheers
Bob
