Forms-Option
Groups
If you have
a field in your table where there are only a few options, you can
create an Option Group where the item desired merely needs to be
clicked on to be selected. A good place to use it in our sample
database is with the Payment Method field in the Transactions table,
which has only three choices: cash, check, or credit card.
 |
The
Option Group Wizard will step you through the process of creating
the Option Group, in which you choose the values assigned to
each option, the field to which it is assigned, and how it looks.

 |
Step

 |
Step
3 will assign values to each of the options. These values will
be entered into the table. |
 |
Step
4 lets you save the value selected for later use, or you can
store the value chosen in a field in the table. |
 |
In
step 5, you select the type of buttons you want and their design. |
 |
Step
6 lets you create a label for the option group. |
This is what
the finished product looks like.
