§   Create the group using IProjectTree6.CreateGroup.

§  Find the group, if you know the name, using IProjectTree6.FindItem.

§  Traverse the Tree using IProjectTree6 methods such as GetNextItem(), until you come to the desired GroupID.

bLock

A Boolean that determines whether the group is locked or unlocked.

Exceptions

HRESULT can return any of the values listed in the HRESULT Return Values list, as well as the following values:

TE_E_INFOTREE_PARENTNOTGROUP

The group ID entered does not represent a valid group in the project tree.

TE_E_INFOTREE_ITEMNOTGROUP

The item entered is not a group and therefore cannot be used as a group.

TE_E_INFOTREE_ITEMISGROUP

ItemID is a group so an object cannot be retrieved.
