Advanced selection tools allow you to select components based on parameters such as size, volume, name, custom properties, and what components they are mated to. By combining these filters ,very specific sets of components can be selected in one operation. Selections can also be saved as Selection Sets, predefined groups of components that makes it easy to quickly recall the set of components for common actions.

You're very welcome!
I can hide and unhide the components from the selection set but can I suppress and unsuppress the components from the selection set? If yes how?

Selection sets simply automate the selection of a group of components. Once you activate a selection set, the commands you can perform are the same as if you had selected them manually. To suppress, just select the selection set, the items should highlight, and you can right click in the graphics area and apply the command. If the selection set contains a mixture of entities (faces, sketches, components, mates, edges) then your command options are likely limited just like they would be if you selected them manually.
