Where did your OptionButtons, GroupBox and TextBox come from (the Visual
Basic or Forms Toolbar; or, perhaps, you are using a UserForm)? I ask
because the Forms' Toolbar has a GroupBox but no TextBox whereas the Visual
Basic Toolbar calls its "group box" a Frame and does have a TextBox. Or are
you mixing components from both Toolbars?

Yeah I didn't make much sence sorry, I have a group of 7 optionbuttons in
a group called "expenses".
Instead of going throught all with the code for each individual optionbox,
I was wondering if there was a way to have the selected box put it's
caption into a textbox called reason.

Hope that is a bit more understandable.

Thanks Again

Hi Greg,

Is that Option buttons on a form to which you have assigned a GroupName
property,
or
Forms OB's on a sheet, which you have Grouped or placed in a GroupBox
Or
ActiveX OB's on a Sheet which you have done either of the above or given
GroupNames

After clarifying the above, explain that you mean by -

"I am looking to have reason.text show the answer."

What is "reason", what do you have in mind for the "answer"

Regards,
Peter T

I would like to know how I can get the data from a group of option
buttons.
I have a group of 8 optionbuttons with the names "e1" through to "e8",
the
name of the group is "expenses" I am not sure how to use or if I can
use
a
groupname vba. I am looking to have reason.text show the answer.
Or do I have to go through and write if e1.value = true then.....

thanks in advance

Greg
