Have had this problem many times.

Anyone know of a fix or how to prevent this or any help what-so-ever???

This always happens when trying to create a "dress-like" part on a new figure.
No idea why it should "un-weld" the seams, and no idea how to "re-weld" them.

I have tried to group the hip in two ways, one as you see here -- all the way to the bottom of the tunic, and one with the hip as just the hip area. Both ways do the same thing. Un-weld.

Make sure, in the CR2, that the hip is welded to the correct body parts. If the groups in your "dress" object consist of hip, lthigh, and rthigh, make sure the hip is welded to the lthigh and rthigh instead of lbuttock and rbuttock.

The weld statements are located almost at the bottom of the CR2. Just do a search in a text editor for weld and you should find them.

Whoo and Hoo!

Who woulda thought to use a text editor wink  LOL

Yes indeedie, no weld for some of these parts, but a quick   
 weld    lShin:1 
             hip:1
Did the trick, now I can tackle all the other problems of rigging a figure in Poser  ;-)

Thank you so much
