Are there radio buttons in the forms functions?

Check out the Forms toolbar (View/Toolbars/Forms). They're labeled
"Option buttons".

Hello;

I can see Text Form Field, Check Box Form Field, Drop-Down Form Field,
Form Field Options, Draw Table, Insert Cells, Insert Frame, Form Field
Shading, and Protect Form; but not "Option buttons".

Am I looking in the right place?

Perplexed,
Chris

Hi Chris,

There are no radio buttons in form functions .
there are HTML Objects for option buttons (Insert | HTML Objects) but these
are different .

Thanks,
Priyanka

There are no radio buttons in form functions .

Am I missing something? I use option/radio buttons all the time in XL
forms.

Perhaps "form functions" is a specific term I'm not interpreting
correctly.

Ah, you're using Word. You never mentioned which Office application you
were referring to, and I gave you the info for XL, which does have
option buttons that you can insert in an XL form via the Forms toolbar.

Word does not have the same option buttons.

But now I think *I* am losing my sanity.

Word 2004 has option buttons for documents:
Insert > HTML Object > Option Button

Word 2004 has option buttons for Visual Basic userforms.

Excel 2004 has worksheet option buttons
View > Toolbars Forms > Option Button

Excel 2004 has dialog sheet option buttons
Right-click a sheet tab > Insert > Microsoft Excel 5.0 dialog > Option
Button

Excel 2004 has option buttons for Visual Basic userforms.

Powerpoint 2004 has option buttons for Visual Basic userforms.

So no matter what application you are using you can have option buttons.
