I am using radio buttons (from the control toolbox) for a survey.
How do I hide the text "true" and "false" from the properties of the radio
button so they do not show up when I print the survey?

You mean you want to hide TRUE/FALSE in the linked cell?

Try giving it a format of: ;;;
(3 semicolons)

It'll hide it in the cell, too--but you'll be able to see it in the formula bar.

No, the semicolons didn't work, thanks for trying.

They should have. The custom number format ;;; *ALWAYS* hides cell contents
on the display and in printout.

Yes, you are correct. It did work. I misunderstood the formatting of
"custom". When I formatted the cells to "custom" and typed in the 3
semicolons, it worked.
THANKS!!!!!!
