option button value in word form

Sangeeta, did you get your problem fixed? Did you change and use the boxes. I am having the same problem with option buttons on a form template that I want protected, but using the Protection Forms option keeps you from using the option buttons.

It would appear that you are using a mixture of formfields and ActiveX
controls on your form. The two don't really mix.

See the article “Making groups of Check Box Form Fields mutually exclusive
(so that they behave like radio buttons) “ at:

Hi,
I have a word form and would like to insert some option button(radio
button) in the form and retrieve the value.
After the form is designed and locked(protect form), the user is unable to
select/deselect the radio button. It becomes read only, where as other form
elements like textbox or checkbox are allowed to be edited.
How can I enable the radio buttons so that the user can use it as a form
element?


Thanks in advance,
Sangeeta
