Display Form - get value from selected radio button

I have a simple display form with a series of radio buttons. I need the selected value to be passed into a where clause in the subsequent query task.  I assumed it would be stored in the button result value but it doesn't appear to be. Any tips?

  Rebecca,

   

  To get information from the form you will have to assign an Argument Name in the form designer for the specific form item. By doing this, an "Output Arguments" input box should display on the overall form tool in the workflow where you can assign a variable to the output. Unfortunately, radio buttons and check boxes only output Boolean results, so you would have to set up an elaborate "If" statement loop to handle those buttons. I would suggest using a combo box instead. This will allow you to get the value directly from what the user selects without the extra hassle. I hope this helps!

  Thanks for the suggestions!  A combo box might be a better option in this case. :)

  Here is a workflow example for using Radio Buttons if you choose to go that route.
