Hello guys, I was wondering how you should use a DBRadioGroup, why not
find any DBRadioBox. Does anyone know how to tell?

Hi:

The on-line help has the following comment for DBRadioGroup:

"A group of mutually exclusive Radio Buttons; only one at a time may
be checked and selected"

It's easy to use.  Just drop it on your form, set the datasource and
datafield, fill in some "Values" and "Items", and a meaningful caption
for the "Grouping"

"Values" are the underlying valid datafield values and "Items" are
what display.

Use for any coded values that are not going change, e.g.

datafield: "sexcode"; Values: "F", "M"; Items: "Female", "Male";
Caption: "Sex"

Another field I might use it for "Marital Status"

HTH,

Doug
