This may get confusing but here goes!

Two groups, A and B. Take your tracks for group A, then your tracks for group B, but take a duplicate of a track from group A with group B, this is your "sync track". Once finished with both, move your two sync tracks so that the track in A is at the bottom for group A, and the matching track in B, is at the top of B (or just below it's matching track)

Now, use "tab to transients" to find the first major transient on Sync track A, and CMD E to cut. Do the same to Sync track B (make sure its the same transient!!!). Next, trim all the tracks above sync track A past sync track A's start point and trim all the tracks below sync track B past sync track B's start point. Next, go into Grid mode (if not already there). Use your hand tool to select sync track A. Hold shift and also select all the above tracks. Move them to any grid mark. Now do the same with sync B and it's tracks. Double check you sync by zooming in to the front of your sync tracks and making sure the waveforms match down to the sample. Disable and hide one sync track, playback and done!

That's impossible - you set the search to the words:

+DTP +Rail +synch

You set the search length to

5 Years

You set it to search all the forums

If you can't accomplish this, the answers you would find won't help.
