How do I use multiple radio buttons in Excel?
Table of Contents
Here are the steps to group radio buttons in Excel:
- Insert all the radio buttons that you want to group.
- Go to Developer –> Controls –> Insert –> Group Box (Form Control).
- Hover the mouse anywhere in the worksheet.
- Place the group box in such a way that all the radio buttons (that you want to group) are inside it.
Radio buttons allow a user to select a single option among multiple options. You can set the Choice Value of each option, for each button, as well as group these buttons by giving them the same Group Name. So, you add three radio buttons and make sure all three of them have the same group name: “Attending”.

one radio button
Only one radio button in a given group can be selected at the same time. Radio buttons are typically rendered as small circles, which are filled or highlighted when selected.
To group rows or columns:
- Select the rows or columns you want to group. In this example, we’ll select columns A, B, and C.
- Select the Data tab on the Ribbon, then click the Group command. Clicking the Group command.
- The selected rows or columns will be grouped. In our example, columns A, B, and C are grouped together.
How do you separate radio button groups?
You group radio buttons by drawing them inside a container such as a Panel control, a GroupBox control, or a form. All radio buttons that are added directly to a form become one group. To add separate groups, you must place them inside panels or group boxes.
On the Home tab, in the Editing group, click Find & Select, and then do either of the following:
- Click Select Objects, and then use the mouse pointer to draw a rectangle around the objects that you want to select.
- Click Selection Pane, and then use the pane to select one or more objects.
