Groups in AutoCAD

Does anyone know how to:

ACCESS GROUP information in AutoCAD?

I'm wanting to ensure that a group does not exist before creating a group
with the same name.

Thanks.

 

Did you try typing "group"?

 

With (setq a (dictsearch (namedobjdict) "acad_group")) and (setq b
(dictnext a t)) aou should get a lsit of the group dictonary which
contains all group names in the "3" groups
