    Go to help, C/SIDE Reference Guide and search for 'keygroup'. Find the application designers guide on your product disc (w1w1adg.pdf, it's in the Doc folder) and read about it. Let us know if you have any specific question if that does not give you the information you are looking for.

    Keygroup is a property which can be used to link a predefined key to a particular key group.
    For example: Go to the design of Item table(27),in the view key form add say show column Keygroups.Now u can see that there is one predefined keygroup "Item(MFG)" for which the key "Production BOM No." is linked.

    Now go to File-->Database-->Information-->click on the Tables button. Here you can create keygroups,now create a keygroup "Item(MFG)" using which you can either disable or enable that particaular key(s) which is linked to this keygroup.

    After creating this new keygroup use the disable/enable to use the keygroup. Now you can see the changes in the keys of Item table(27).

    Keygroups are used where ceratin key combination a required for some report sorting purpose where in the report will be used very rarely.So that you can enable that key only before running the report by which system's performance will increase.

    A single key can be linked to more than one keygroup by uising ,(comma) as the seperator.

    Debugging is twice as hard as writing code. Therefore if you write the code as cleverly as possible you are by definition not smart enough to debug it.
