hi,
can anybody explain to me what does "not" do in the following code:

With Sheets("Sheet1").OptionButton1 'code name for the button
.Value = Not .Value
End With
thanks

The optionbutton's value can be true or false.

Not true = false
not false = true

The code toggles the optionbutton from checked to unchecked or vice versa.

The "Not" operator flips the bits, changing a 0 bit to a 1 bit. Generally,
you would use this only with TRUE and FALSE values to toggle between the two
(TRUE = NOT FALSE, FALSE = NOT TRUE), but it can be used with any number.
E.g.,

Not &h000000FF = &hFFFFFF00

If it is used with number other than -1 (TRUE) and 0 (FALSE), it would be
confusing and quite possibly wrong.
