Default state of option button

You'll get this error if you attempt to use a name that doesn't
exist. Be sure you are using the correct name of the option
button.

I get this error "Unable to get OptionButtons property of the

worksheet
class"

Your best bet is to give specific names to your option

buttons
rather than rely on index numbers.

is there a way to trace which optionbutton is insert 1st?

Do something like

Dim V as Long
V = ActiveSheet.OptionButtons(1).Value
If V = 1 Then
' button is true
Else
' button is false
End If

Do I put the code within the sub function itself?

E.g
the
groupname of the
2 optionbutton is "Group19"
Sub group19_click()
<Should the code be put here?
End sub

The "optionbuttons(1)" refers to the first

(earliest
created)
option button on the sheet. Alternatively, you

can
use
the
name
of the option button. E.g.,

Debug.Print

ActiveSheet.OptionButtons("TheButton").Value

I'm using forms toolbar. Does the

"optionsbutton(1)"
refer
to
the name of
the optionbutton or something else?
"Chip Pearson" wrote in

If the button is from the Forms toolbar, use

code
like

Debug.Print

ActiveSheet.OptionButtons(1).Value

If the button is from the Controls toolbar,

use
code
like

Debug.Print

ActiveSheet.OLEObjects("OptionButton1").Object.Val ue
