Create a radio button group

You use radio buttons when the user must select from one of several choices. When a user selects an option, the previously selected option is un-selected.

You create the options for a user as a group of radio buttons. Each radio button has a caption, and provides a unique value to your script.

You can only assign integer tags to radio button controls.
