Frame object (Outlook Forms Script)

Represents a functional and visual control group.

Remarks

All option buttons in a Frame are mutually exclusive, so you can use the Frame to create an option group. You can also use a Frame to group controls with closely related contents.For example, in an application that processes customer orders, you might use a Frame to group the name, address, and account number of customers.

You can also use a Frame to create a group of ToggleButton controls, but the toggle buttons are not mutually exclusive.

To create a group of mutually exclusive OptionButton controls, you can put the buttons in a Frame on your form, or you can use the OptionButton.GroupName property.
