Msgbox Optionbutton1.Value

But it will show True or False, that is set or not.

Hi Henry,

What you are checking is just the value of the constant that XL uses to
identify the type of shape. For more search XL VBA help for
xlformcontrol and you will be led to the 'FormControlType Property'
page.

What you want to do is check the caption of the option button that the
user selected. Assuming you put multiple option buttons within a group
box in a worksheet, XL will ensure that only one of the option buttons
is selected at any given time. Then, you can use code like:

Dim i As Integer
With ActiveSheet
For i = 1 To .OptionButtons.Count
If .OptionButtons(i).Value = 1 Then
.Labels(1).Caption = .OptionButtons(i).Caption
End If
Next i
End With
