Thanks for the reply. I'll wait. I'm not sure how many others use that feature... maybe none?

It works, I think you're missing a step Hal. Any time you check multiple boxes in Membership Management, you're selecting members for an action available in the "Membership Tools" dropdown near the top of the screen.
In this case you should choose "Create Custom Group" which will create a new group, or update an existing group.
Steve - is it possible to rename the function to "Save Custom Group" rather than "Create Custom Group"

Thank you for that information. I see where I went wrong. I was on the members tab and it looked like I could make my changes in that tab -- in fact when I tried making changes, it told me my changes were a success thus I thought it was an ok way to make the list edits. I see now that I need to go to the Custom Groups tab and select the members in that tab's section three and then save.

I have made the modifications needed now. Much appreciate the help.
