Hi Alex,
I've accomplished this in the past with a script
similar to this :
lock screen
-- now setup the template properties
set the style of the templateButton to "radiobutton"
-- create the buttons in the group
repeat for each line tButtonName of tNewButtons
create button tButtonName in group "Foobar"
set the top of it to tRunningTop
add 20 to tRunningTop
end repeat
-- all done, so redraw screen
unlock screen
Of course you'll have to do some bookkeeping to remove
the buttons etc, but that shouldn't prove too hard.
Hope this helped a bit,
Jan Schenkel.
