Default Radio or option button

I have tried changing the group name for each set of option buttons following
the directions om "help" under the GroupName Property Example as follows:

Sub CNMPFollowup_Initialize()
OptionButton1.GroupName = "Yellowstone"
OptionButton2.GroupName = "Yellowstone"
OptionButton3.GroupName = "Yellowstone"

OptionButton4.GroupName = "Yosemite-Group2"
OptionButton5.GroupName = "Yosemite-Group2"
OptionButton6.GroupName = "Yosemite-Group2"

OptionButton7.GroupName = "Brice Canyon-Group3"
OptionButton8.GroupName = "Brice Canyon-Group3"
OptionButton9.GroupName = "Brice Canyon-Group3"
End Sub

I still don't get the results I'm wanting. Am I doing something wrong? The
form is a follow-up to prescribed farm practices and we're trying to some
feedback of the results.

Thanks for your help.

If you used the optionbuttons from the Forms toolbar, then draw a GroupBox
around each pair of optionbuttons. (The groupbox is also on the Forms toolbar.)

If you used optionbuttons from the Control toolbox toolbar, then right click on
each and change the groupname. Use a unique groupname for each group of
optionbuttons.

(The default groupname is the sheet name--that's why they're all grouped
together.)

Is this for something like a survey?

Maybe this from Debra Dalgleish would help:

I would like to add radio or option buttons to a spreadsheet. The options
for them would be Yes, No, and NA for several questions. I can't get the
selection in one question to stay after I select an answer in the following
question. I think it has to do with grouping the buttons, but I can't find
anything in "help" on how to do this.
