Add Option to OptionGroup

[Thelma Lubkin]

I've been unable to find code for adding an option to an option group.
I did find this instruction on a site called softlookup.com:

"If you want to add another option button to an option group, click
the Option Button tool and move into the option group (it will become
selected) and click."

But I'd like to copy the specs (size, font, etc) for an existing
option button and its label rather than starting anew and fighting to
make it look like the others. So I made a copy of one of the option
buttons and label already in the frame and put that into the frame.
But it didn't associate itself with the frame. It sits there, an
independent option button, not recognized as one of the frame's option
group. I'm hoping that I can attach it, either from the design window
or with VBA code

Thelma,

If you copy/paste inside the option group, the copy should be part of
the group. If you do, however, end up with an option button that is not
part of the group and you want it to be part of a group, do this.

Select the option button, cut it, select the option group, then paste.
The button should end up part of the group.

HTH

That certainly does. Perhaps I needed to select
the option group before I pasted the copy into it?
Thank you.
