How do I set an option button so it is automatically selected and is the default button when a form loads?
It is located in a group of 6 other option buttons in a frame.

You set the tabindex property of the button to 0 and consecutively after that. Hope that helps.

if the option where named "option"
If I were in front of a compiler I could tell you FOR SURE.
on the load sub
sub form_load
option(N).selected=true
end sub
where N is the index in the array.
I'll post back the right answer if I am wrong.

Private Sub Form_Load()
optButton.Value = True
End Sub
where optButton is the name of the button you want selected
CJK's suggestion also works

Yeah those two are right...don't use my suggestion for selected isn't even a value in an option. I suck. :p
