Radio Buttons

Hi, Is it possible to make the first of a series of radio buttons deselected? Users are not selecting the choice that pertains to them because the first button in the list is already selected by default.
 
Thank You!

Yes, the specifics of how you do it depend on the Forms technology, AcroForm or LiveCycle, but the technique is the same.

Each Radio Button has an export value. Just set the value of the Radio Button group to something that is not one of the export values. Typically this is "Off" for AcroForms and "0" for LiveCycle forms.
