Putting two groups onto the clipboard

[Mark Schonewille]

Charles,

If you want to copy two groups at once, you can temporarily group the 
groups or create a rect from the topleft of one and the bottomright of 
the other group:

put the topleft of grp 1 & comma & the bottomright of grp 2 into myRect
