So, I have cleaned up my code (hopefully) and have gotten it to work......well, kind of.

I have a sheet with the various meds that are being taken by an individual (no confidential info here). I have a dynamic routine that "builds" the user form. I then have the option buttons in two groups of three. Those groups are dynamically named linking them, hopefully, to the med name in the original sheet.

I can get the routine to read and save the information for the main label (med name) and the time of day. But the other group for how often to give them is not being currently read in the right method. I cannot figure out why.

P.S. the routine reading the option buttons is something I got from another person.

A picture of my "input" form is included to see what I am trying to do.

Anyway, here is the code I am using

Dim i As Integer ' this make the variable not procedure specific.
Dim sGroupName$

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
You've had 55 views but no responses before this one and I'm wondering if that's because the issue is not clear and there's no question to answer. I think this might be too vague
But the other group for how often to give them is not being currently read in the right method.
Aside from that I have to wonder why you don't create the form manually rather than write all that code to do it. I tried playing a bit with that code and although the active cell has a value, no label shows up on the form so it all seems a bit elusive to me. Perhaps if you define the problem and ask specific questions you'll get more feedback.

After seeing your posting here from a couple of weeks ago
I downloading your workbook and played around with it, came up with this
VBA Code:
