do this:
1. Create all your groups you want to use as backgrounds.
2. Write a little script
...
repeat with i = 1 to 3
  place bg "background group 1" onto cd i
end repeat
repeat with k = 4 to 45
   place bg "background grp 2" onto cd k
end repat
## etc.
3. Done :-)

I am not familiar with Toolbook...
