DESCRIPTION:
The contents of a joint/member/load group are incorrectly altered
when joints/members/loads contained in the group are deleted (DELETIONS
mode) and new joints/members/loads are created. The following example,
including output, illustrates this problem:
STRUDL
*** G T S T R U D L ***
RELEASE DATE VERSION COMPLETION NO.
AUGUST 1993 9301VAX 3062
*** ACTIVE UNITS - LENGTH WEIGHT ANGLE TEMPERATURE TIME
*** ASSUMED TO BE INCH POUND RADIAN FAHRENHEIT SECOND

GEN 10 MEMB ID 1 1 FROM 1 1 TO 2 1

The workaround to this problem is to delete the group and redefine
it in the same manner as it was originally defined, but with the ACTIVE
modifier added to the DEFINE GROUP command as shown below:
STRUDL
