No you got it essentially correct Hendrik. I am not sure if I understand you
though either. Let me see if I got it right, Program 1 with its zones are
sent to group 1 in its editor window, Program 2 with its zones assigned to
its group (also group 1). Select all in 2, paste into editor for program 1.

Does the group  1 of program 2 increment upon pasting to group 2
automatically?
