If I choose a Control Source I can get the option buttons to work. Can you
help?

Can? or Can't?

What specifically are you trying to do? What "doesn't work"? Where are the
option buttons?

You can see your database. We cannot. It's completely impossible to tell from
your post what you might be doing wrong, because you don't say what you're
doing!

I put an Option Group in a frame. There are 11 options. I want to store the
data in a field called SDLCStatus (the option button values 1 through 11. If
I put the Control Soucre of SDLCStatus the buttons don't work. I am sorry I
meant that I can't get them to work. If I take the Control Soure out the
buttons work. Can you help?

It sounds like the Form itself may not be updateable. Check the form's
Properties - are its Allow Edits and Allow Additions properties set to Yes?
Also check the form's Recordsource: if you open it as a query, do you have the
*> new record line at the bottom? If not, open the query in SQL view and post
it here.

Thank you very much! I checked everything and all was OK. I didn't change a
thing and it just started working, This gives me something to check for in
the future. Thanks again!
