Option Button TripleState property

[Dianne]

Why doesn’t the TripleState property work correctly when set to True in my
Radio/Option buttons? The control is supposed to cycle through states for
Yes, No, and Null values when set to True. It only cycles through Yes and No
values. Is there another property setting that works in tangent with this
one in order for it to work properly? I want to be able to unselect the
Option button to after selecting it initially.

Thank you for your help.

Put the cursor on the TripleState property in the Properties dialog and
press F1 to open the Help topic. You'll find in the Remarks section of that
topic the following statement:

"Although the TripleState property exists on the OptionButton, the property
is disabled. Regardless of the value of TripleState, you cannot set the
control to Null through the user interface."
