Changed Option Group doesn't work right

I changed an option group slightly and now it doesn't behave the way it used to. I changed a "SelectCategory" to 2 columns instead of 1. The option group has 2 radio buttons where selecting the second button "wakes up" the "SelectCategory". When I open the dialog form, radio button 1 has focus, but the SelectCategory is lit up. If I select the second radio button and then the first one, the SelectCategory gets grayed out. When I remove the second column (back to the way it was originally), all works as it should. What's up

JMorrell,

I don't know the reason for the change in behaviour with the
addition/removal of a column. But if the default value of the Option
Group is 1 then I guess it would make sense to set the Enabled property
(I assume that's what "wakes up" refers to?) of the SelectCategory
(what? unbound combobox?) to No.

Sorry if my first post wasn't crystal clear, its been a long day. The SelectCategory I refer to is a list box control. The properties for the Option Group show that the first radio button is the default.

Here's something you don't often hear; I made a back-up of the db yesterday. When I compare the properties of the 2 forms, the Option Group, the controls in the Option Group, all are the same with the exception of the number of columns within the SelectCategory. I proved that by adding a second column to the list box, the Option Group behaves differently.

Does anyone have any suggestions
