Reset the graphic group number

Reset the Graphic Group number
Phil Chouinard
posted this to the v7.general newsgroup:
To reset the Graphic Group number, use this keyin:
mdl keyin calculat calc tcb->graphic=1
He also adds, "All non-graphic grouped elements have a graphic group of 0, so it would be better to start at 1."
Disclaimer: The key-in should only be used if there are no graphic elements in the file. Resetting the graphic group number when there are elements present, increases the possibility that different elements will end up with the same graphic group. Should this occur it may create a significant problem that's not easily resolved.
