Description

The properties of TDBRadioGroup are similar to those of TRadioGroup (and TCustomRadioGroup). Access is obtained to members of the group by selecting (in the Object Inspector) the ellipsis (...) next to the entry Items, and then editing the stringlist.

At run-time, selecting one of the radio buttons makes the corresponding ItemIndex available to the programmer, and the corresponding string Item gets selected and appears as the string value for the record in that field.
