how to group option buttons in word?

[Guest]

Imagin you have used the option button(radio buttons) in a word document but
you have 2 questions to make the buttons for and each have 4 options.If I
click on any option in the second question it will clear the chosen option in
the first question.

Who can I solve this problem?

Regards

I'll assume you inserted the option buttons from the Control Toolbox. If
that's true, visit the Properties dialog of each option button. For all the
buttons in question 1, enter the same value for the GroupName property
(you're free to choose any value, for example Q1). For all the buttons in
question 2, enter a value that's different from the one in question one (for
example, Q2). That creates two groups of buttons that work independently.
