2. Open the group.
3. In the Group Selection window, select Actions, Modify.
4. Type a new Group Id, Group Name, or both.

   Limits:

   • The group ID can only contain a maximum of eight alphanumeric characters and must be unique in the encyclopedia.
   • The group name can only contain a maximum of 32 alphanumeric characters.
5. Click OK when you finish changes.
