Option Button Field

[sally]

I am making a form to be filled out in MSW. There are
about ten questions with option buttons to answer with.
Instead of being able to click one answer per question, it
will only allow one answer for the whole document. How do
I tell my document when one question ends, so my form will
work the way I would like it to?

Hi Sally,

I am making a form to be filled out in MSW. There are
about ten questions with option buttons to answer with.
Instead of being able to click one answer per question, it
will only allow one answer for the whole document. How do
I tell my document when one question ends, so my form will
work the way I would like it to?

Go into the "Properties" for each option buton. There's a
property called "Group Name". Every button with the same
group name will be mutually exclusive with all the other
buttons in that group. So give all the buttons for the same
question the same group name.
