Resetting Radio Buttons...

[ksw1069]

I have a form that has 3 radio buttons that a user can use to if they want to retrieve data (by description or stock #, or by page #). Purely optional. If neither of them are selected (as when the form first loads) then the default retrieval is to retrieve all. They would like a "Reset" button, in case after they select one radio button, they can change their mind and have them all cleared (to retrieve all)....but it appears once one is selected, all of them cannot be reset without resetting/reloading the entire form...

Just wanted to make sure that is the case or if there is a way I can accompish this...since there are other controls on the screen that I do not want to have reset with a reload of the entire form.

Thanks!

Why don't you just add a 4th radio button to the form. When the form loads, default the value for 'all' to be selected. You won't need to reset the radio buttons if there is an 'all' selection.

Did you consider changing to CheckBoxes?

That's what I would do. Doesn't sound like you meet the criterion for option buttons, that all selections must be mutually exclusive.
