Hi All,
I'm working on a form which contains an option group which has four possible choices. I'd like the option group to have none of the options selected when the form opens. When creating the group i chose the option to 'Do not set default value'. This didn't work so then i tried setting the default value in the bound field to Null but the form still opens with the radio button in the first position. Am i missing something obvious ?

Thanks

not possible.
Tho you could add an invisible option with a value 0 or -1.
and the user cant see it, but it still has a value as opposed to null.
 
is the option group bound to a field in a table? If so, it will take the value from the table and will only be 'blank' for a new record
 
Thanks for the suggestions guys.....this is odd but when i set the Data Entry value on the main form to Yes and on the sub form to No it worked. The subform contains the option group. Thanks again for the help
 
EDIT Posted this without seeing your last reply:

I'm confused.
You said it didn't work. What happened?
If its an unbound option group you can certainly have no default value.e.g.

attachment.php


Then use the option group after update event to do something based on the selected option
