Word forms don't have option buttons. With some effort and VBA code you can
get checkboxes to act as option buttons.

The simplest option is to use a dropdown list instead of a set of options,
but if you want to get into the VBA needed to bully checkboxes into behaving
as option buttons, read this sequence of articles.
