Add another option button to an option group

[Guest]

I have an option group that originally had 2 choices. (These choice relate to
which report will be run.) I wanted to add another report (and therefore
another button to the option group) but I couldn't figure out how to do it. I
wound up deleting the option group with two choices and added a new group
with three. But I'm betting that that was not the best way. Could someone
please share how to add another button to an already existing group? Thanks.

Steven,

With your form in design view, make sure you toolbox is visible. Click on
the "Option Button" in the toolbox and then move over to your option group
and click inside the option group. The new option wil be created in the
option group.

You will the need to modify your code to take the necessary action based on
the new value availble from the option group.

In Design view, simply drag another radio button from the Tool box
into the existing Option Frame. The entire Frame should 'light' up.
Let go of the radio button and it is now part of the group. Check the
new button's Option Value. If you previously had a 2 button group, the
Option Value of this new button should be 3. Re-position it where
wanted.
