Default how do you add a query (or table) to a custom group or category?

I have over 75 queries in my current database. I would like to organize them
into groups or categories. Prior to 2007, you could create shortcuts, groups
or views of certian items in the database window. It was very easy to do.
Click and drag.

It appears like 2007 has something similar, but for the life of me I can't
find any help to show me how to do it. I have gotten to the point of
creating a category...it shows up on the navigation pane, but I can't figure
out how to add items to it...even when use the ? on the screen that I think I
should be in to do it. I've looked in several 2007 books to no avail.

thanks in advance.

Finally got it to work, but I am not sure I could tell anyone how to do it.
I kind of stumbled on it. While it says click and drag, I can't figure out
how to but I did finally get it to give me a move to group shortcut menu.

another bad thing it looks like once you assign it to a group it is gone
from the object group i.e. if you move a table to your custom group it isn't
in the table group anymore. Oh well I guess it will have to work.
