What would be the differences? In the example case that I posted, should I have used... rb.group = Lec; or rb.group = Lec; Thanks --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Douglas Knudsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Note, use of groupName in AS is not the way of the light so to speak.

This seems to be the best and only way to make a radio button be selected given only its name and group.

When would be the correct time to validate the buttons? I tried the following but got the same errors... rb.validateNow(); sectRadioCanvas.addChild(rb); --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Alex Harui [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Radiobuttons don't actually get assigned to the group until validated.
