Getting Value from Option Buttons

Hello,

I think this is a very simple question to answer and maybe I'm just missing something. I have created a userform with an OK button:

Code:
Private Sub cmdOK_Click()
    If optStraight = False And optBrick = False Then
        MsgBox "Please select a pattern"
    Else
        Unload frmPattern
    End If
End Sub
I have two options for the user to select a pattern, either "Straight" or "Brick", and a check to make sure that one of the patterns have been selected.

However, I'm having difficulty getting information from the userform to the code I need to use. I created a short macro to see what was going on and I got "False" values regardless of which option button I select.

Code:
        If frmPattern.optStraight.Value = True Then
            MsgBox "Straight"
        ElseIf frmPattern.optBrick.Value = True Then
            MsgBox "Brick"
        Else
            MsgBox frmPattern.optStraight.Value & " " & frmPattern.optBrick.Value
        End If
The output from this is "False False". Why can't I get "True" values?
Edit:
So I just thought of this right after I posted, but I think I'm losing the values when I use the "Unload" command. Is there another method of closing the userform without losing the information?

It was working before, just that I was being dumb (Made another message box as another test, and thought that I was getting the second message box). Thanks for all your help!
