Multi Search Form - Help me, please!

Hi, everyone!
I'm making a database for quality ISO 9001. In this form, I have some buttons (option buttons) to have a multi search. But I don't know how I can do that ! Could you help me?
Thanks!

If you are talking about an option group specifically, the answer is NO. Option groups are used for selections that are mutually exclusive so you can never check more than one option in an option group at one time. You can make something that looks like an option group with a box and multiple option buttons within the box. But, I wouldn't do this. It is confusing to users when things that look alike work differently. Rather than something that looks like an option group, you might want to use a multi-select listbox with a note on the top explaining how to select multiple items. Otherwise, you can just use a group of checkboxes enclosed by dotted lines or something that looks different from an option group.
