Creates a group of option buttons.

OptionGroup

Remarks

Option button groups are containers that contain option buttons. A group of option buttons makes it possible for you to make a choice from a set of buttons. Choosing an option button makes your choice current and releases a previous choice. A bullet next to the option button indicates the current choice. For example, option buttons can be used to direct output to a file, a printer, or a window.

For additional information about creating groups of option buttons, see Using Controls.

Example

The following example creates an OptionGroup control and places the control on a form. The OptionGroup control has three buttons, and depending on the option button you click, a circle, ellipse, or square is displayed. The Buttons and Caption properties are used to specify the text displayed next to each option button.

The Shape control is used to create the circle, ellipse, and square. The OptionGroup control's Click event uses a DO CASE ... ENDCASE structure and the Value property to display the appropriate shape when you click an option button.
