Pro/TOOLKIT has API ProLocalGroupCreate() used to create local group of of given set of features.
you should look for some thing like this in VB-API.

To my knowledge the only API that has the ability to create/delete features is the Pro/TOOLKIT API. Therefore if you are not using that API then I don't think you can accomplish your task.

Hi Rahul
Can you explain again that how to use "ProFeatureSuppress()" funtion, Whenever I am trying It delete group/suppress group not a single member of this group,

is it possible to expand this group using VB API? if possible request to help this part.

Sujit,
API need integer ID of the feature along with otther input arguments, this feat ID in case of ProToolkit is available with ProFeature structure.

In case of VB-API I think IpfcSuppressOperation can be useful which has property as IpfcSuppressOperation.AllowGroupMembers
