Designing outlook forms

Trying to create a form with several rows of radio buttons
or checkboxes, don't mind which, however, do not know how
to make it possible to select a button or box on every
line. It must be possible but we can't get it to work have
tried the properties value and groupname and grouping and
naming the same etc etc. Can anyone help. Checkbox makes
it so that if you have three boxes you can select all
three whereas the radio button allows you to select one
which is what we want, but when you get down to the next
row and select one, then the previous row deselects - I
hope you get the drift. Any help appreciated.

All radio buttons in a form are considered to be in the same group
unless some are in a Frame control. Each group in a Frame control is a
separate group. So put as many Frame controls as you need on the form
and drop your groups of radio buttons into the frames.

Another way is to use code for your checkboxes. If Checkbox A is
checked handle the Click event for that control. In that event handler
code set the other checkboxes in the group to unchecked. Make sure to
have a Boolean variable in your code module that is set when your code
is manipulating a checkbox so the other checkbox code can check that
variable and know when the Click event is fired by a user clicking the
control and when it's a Click from code manipulating that control.
