option group fails when form opens

[terryc]

When the form opens initially, the default is option 1. I can't select
another option. If I move to design view and return, the option group works.
Have this problem in 2003 and 2007. Any ideas? A macro opens the form when
the database is opened. Thanks.

Sounds like your macro is specifying read-only when it opens the form.

That was the problem. Thanks! The form is a switchboard to direct the users
to various tasks. Does it matter if it opens "add" or "edit"? The users will
be doing both once they navigate to the various forms.
