Option Buttons help

[Jamie]

Hi There

I have created a form in outlook with a number of option
boxes. My plan is to send this form to people that I have
completed work for and they click the option boxes to mark
how well they think I did the work. At the moment the
form works fine but when the email is sent back to me all
the option boxes are reset to blank.

Can anyone tell me why this is happening?

I am using Outlook 98.

Any help would be greatfully appreciated

Thanks in advance

Jamie

How are you "sending" the form to the other people and how are they sending
it back to you? Are the option button groups all bound to Outlook
properties?

I basically send an email out with a tab on the email that
you click to access the form. They are clicking the
option buttons then sending it back to me by email. I'm
afraid I'm not sure what you mean by 'bound to outlook
properties' it is the first time I have used outlook for
anything other than sending emails.

With the form in design mode, right-click any of your option buttons, choose
Properties, then switch to the Value tab. If you don't see the name of a
field at the top of the tab, it's unbound. See
http://www.outlookcode.com/d/formcontrols.htm for info on setting up option
buttons.
