Devin is suggesting dataGrid forms because I think he assumed that you want the 
buttons to move lockstep with the scroll. You can assign a radio button to each 
line in that object, and the scrolling is managed internally.  A packaged 
solution.


You could certainly manage a group of radio buttons that tracked the scroll of 
a field, and that would be a great learning project. Much to handle, but all at 
the novice level. DataGrids have all that built-in, but they are complex, and 
you would learn much less, even after you got it running the way you want.



Do both.

Devin, so using text fields isn't an option huh?  I'll check out DGs.
