If the option buttons are bound to a field, Outlook takes care of initializing the values. No code is needed. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/formcontrols.htm

To make this work, you must bind both option buttons to a single field, and you
must include code in your Open_event code to initialize the controls from field
value.
