When I make a form in Acrobat V.9 pro extended and add bullets to the form, how do I allow the user to choose none of the bullets. I have forms where there is not always going to be a required selection of one box or the other on certain lines, but when there is a selection I need bullets so only one or the other can possibly be selected.

Thanks for the quick reply. I have noticed you do that often on this forum and it is much appreciated!
To clarify, I'm overlaying an existing pdf form which I am not allowed to change, so I can't add the "none of the above" bullet. Are you saying I can use check boxes where you can select only one when they are named the same (or none if I don't want to)?

Check boxes will with the same name and different export value property, will allow the selection of only one of the check boxes. The difference between a check box and a radio button is that a check box can be unchecked or unselected but a radio button can not be.
When check boxes or radio buttons have the same name, they become an exclusionary group and only one them can be selected at a time. And the unique value for button (widget) allows the selection of a single item.

Sir, you are a godsend. That option works perfectly for me and without your help I would have been scratching my head for a long long time.
