That's the whole point of classes. I would suggest you look at changing the style of each option button to graphical. This would then easier represent the Yes/No. Add a method to the option group class to return true/false depending which button is depressed (you could even have methods to deal with control source etc).

>If I understand this, I will have to create this new propery and event for each yes/no optiongroup on the form. This one has eight. is there some way to wrap it into the control instead of the form, then I could just copy the modified option group for the rest of the seven optiongroups. Or did I get it wrong and this will work for any option group. Looks like just one, since the code will have to specify the field in the replace clause, I guess I could pass it also.
