If you select one of your radio buttons and view its properties, you will see the values assigned to each button. You can also set these values, if you don't like the defaults (1, 2, 3...).
To set the default value, you can do it two ways: 1) set the default value in the properties sheet of the frame 2) set the default value in code: Frame1 = 1 To find the current value, simply retrieve the value of the frame, rather than any of the buttons. Hope that gets you in the right direction....
