Linking option buttons in different group boxes

Hi guys & gals,

I have a form that contains a group box with option buttons, and for clarity's sake, next to it another group box, also with option buttons. So, I can choose 1 option in one box and another option in the other box at the same time.

I'm sure you heard me coming a mile away, but here it goes anyway:
how can I link the two group boxes (and option buttons) so I would only be able to choose 1 option out of both boxes?

Thanks for any feedback!

Hi,

Place the group of option buttons in different frame.

For eg,
Frame 1 :
Option Button1
Option Button2

Frame 2:
Option Button 3
Option Button 4

Regards,

Thanks for the reply, salimhudeen, but I guess I didn't explain the problem very well.

Frame 1 in my form contains 7 option buttons, frame 2 contains 5 option buttons. How can I link both so that it's only possible to choose 1 from all 12 buttons, so effectively "linking" both frames to make 1 virtual frame.

Hi,

One idea is remove frame.
Then set GroupName property for each Option Button.
The above 12 option buttons to make same group name.

Thanks Salim, that did the trick!
