Hi,

I'm writing an application in Visual Basic 1.0.  I need to have more than
one group of option buttons on the form at the same time.  The "Microsoft
Visual Basic Programmers' Guide" says, on page 129:

"Note  If you want to create more than one group of option buttons, you
must place some of them inside frames or picture boxes.  All the option
buttons inside any given frame constitute a separate group, as do all the
option buttons inside a picture box.  When creating a separate group this
way, always draw the frame or picture box first, then draw the option
buttons."

I followed these instructions exactly.  When I try to click on any of the
option buttons inside my frames or picture boxes, nothing at all happens.

What do I need to do to make two or more separate groups of option buttons
work?
