You use a Group Box for that...

Hi.

If i understand u correctly
what u can do is add a GroupBox and then put 2 radio buttons in it
so similarly for every 2 radio buttons u need to add a groupbox

Hello,

I'm using PB 8.0.3.

I'm trying to use a lot of radio buttons and I want them grouped in pairs of
two. Unfortunately, PowerBuilder by default groups them all together. Does
anyone know how to remidy this?

Thank you,

GroupBox is the control meant to group RadioButton controls on a window. If
you place radiobuttons directly on the window, the window is "treated" like
a single groupbox!!

Use GroupBox to group RadioButtons on a window. In a DataWindow, you don't
need a groupbox to group RadioButtons as a set of radiobuttons are related
to a single column - although covering them up with a groupbox/rectangle
looks elegant and organized.

Instead of using individual RadioButton controls, build an external
DataWindow with one column per pair of radio buttons.
This is much more efficient and gets rid of the need for the additional
useless control of a GroupBox.
