You could format the font of the cell to be the same color as the
background.

You cold make the option button opaque and have it cover the cell

That works except it places the word "True" or "False" inside the cell
behind
the control. It's purely aesthetics, but is there a way to prevent this?

Assuming option buttons from the control toolbox toolbar.
If you have the optionbuttons linked to cells, then just do a countif on
the
cells for True.

My option buttons are grouped by row (one per cell) so only one of
five
can
be selected in each row. Now I need to know how many have been
selected
in
each of the five columns and totals stored in a cell. Will one of you
VBA
gurus please help me count how many option buttons are selected in
each
column? Also, if there is a better method other than the option
button to
accomplish this, I'm all ears. I have been having the users put a
number
1
in the column and then auto sum the 1's at the bottom, (quite easy),
however,
users keep screwing up and having more than one "1" in a row so I'm
need a
better method of control.
