Option Buttons

M

Matt Nelson

Ok, I know this is simple but I just can't seem to make it work. I have a grouping frame that has 3 radio buttons in it. I want to set up a text box that is bound to this group, so that is will display the selection. The grouping box is called Frame342 and the text box is Text602. When I went to the properties of the text box and set the
"Control Source" to =[Frame342
I get this as the result "#Name?

What am I doing wrong here, I just don't get it

Thanks

It works fine in principle; for example, I just created such an option
frame and text box, and it worked. Make sure that you've got the name
of the option frame correct in the control source. Also, make sure that
the option group is behaving properly, with only one radio button being
"pushed" at a time.

Put the following code in the AfterUpdate event of Frame342:

Me!Text602 = Me!Frame342
