Question on Radio Buttons

[Fred Giannetto]

Hello Phil Davis,

I do not have access to it now but two more questions.  The question names 
are still active when all the buttons are set up as a group (I imagine I 
must have to set then up before they are a group)?  Why doesn't

answer gQuestion1

return a value when used in a button?

Thank you and Happy Holidays
All best Always
Fred
