Control.Buttons(nIndex).Method

Return Value

nIndex


An integer between 1 and the number of buttons specified in the ButtonCount property for Control.
Property


A property of a CommandButton or OptionButton.
Value


The value of Property.
Method


A method of a CommandButton or OptionButton.

Remarks

Applies To: CommandGroup Control | OptionGroup Control

You can use the Buttons property to set properties and call methods for all the buttons in the group. The Buttons property is an array that is created when the button group is created.

Example

The following example creates an OptionGroup control and places the control on a form. The OptionGroup control has three buttons; depending on the option button you click, a circle, ellipse, or square appears. The ButtonCount property specifies the number of buttons in the OptionGroup. The Buttons and Caption properties 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.
