Automatic user group assign at sign up

I posted this question in pre-sale forum and was told it can be done. So now I want to know how :)

I want to modify the registration form to ask a number of custom questions relating to my board's use and based on an anwer to one question I want the user to be automatically placed into one of 2 groups, one of them having more privileges.

1. Create the custom fields using the AdminCP and make sure they are required & displayed at registration
2. Create some custom PHP code in one of the registration Hook Locations I'm thinking 'register_addmember_process'. With some PHP code like:

if(...)
{
// X is a positive interger (the ID number of the usergroup)
$userdata->set('usergroupid', X);
}

Hopefully something like that should work, it will need a bit of testing but it shouldn't be too difficult. If you know PHP you could probably take a bash at it yourself, otheriwse you might need to hire someone to do it for you.

Unfortunetly I am not familiar with PHP. Very much a newbie to this. Thankfully I'm finding the entire set up process so far rather intuitive (Thank you VB guys!) but I'm not much of a computer person.
