The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, versions 5.0, 5.0a, 6.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
In Visual FoxPro 5, it was possible to set OptionButtons to have logical values
instead of numeric. However, in Visual FoxPro 6, this behavior changed. While
the buttons can be set to logical values, clicking on a button will cause the
button's value property to be reset to numeric.
CAUSE
=====
OptionButtons should only have numeric values, even if the interface allows them
to be set differently.
STATUS
======
This behavior is by design.
