David, I don't think you need a wizard to do this.

1. Open your form in design view.

2. If you do not see the Toolbox, open it (View menu).

3. Click the Option group control in the toolbox.

4. Click on your form where you want the group.
Access puts the group on your form, about 1 inch square.

5. Click the Option Button control in the toolbox.
Click inside the option group. Access puts a button in the group.
(It goes to revers video when you move the mouse in).

6. Repeat step 5 for other buttons.

Finer points
7. To set a Default Value for the group, right-click the option group, and
choose Properties. On the Data tab of the Properties box, enter 1 at the
Default Value property (assuming you want the button to be automatically
selected that has 1 as its Option Value).

8. If you duplicate (Edit menu) the option buttons within the group, you end
up with 2 buttons that have the same Option Value. Use the Properties box to
change the Option Value of your buttons.
