Option group not working

I used the wizard to create an unbound option group with 3 radio buttons.
When I open my form, the proper default option is selected. When I click on
another option, the text for the option is enclosed in a hairline rectangle
but the option button is not selected (still default). The click event is not
fired unless I click somewhere on the option group besides an option.

What's going on?

I have never had occasion to use an option group before.
 
Hi, Mark.

Most likely the Option Group's Locked property is set to Yes. Change it to
No.

Hi, Rick.

Have you checked the Form properties? Perhaps AllowEdits is set to No? I
use Option Groups frequently, and have never seen this behavior.

Another tidbit of info.: the OG is instantiated in a subform contained on a
tab page. I defined an OG on the main part of the form (outside sub-form and
tab pages) and the OG works fine. If I define it on a tab page, the OG won't
work. Will access not let one defice an OG on a tab page?
 
No, OG's work on tab pages. There's something we're not seeing. Check the
Data properties of the subform; it's got to be there.
