I have 5 radiobutton. They have all been grouped into the Groupname HR\_value  
Each of the radio button have the names: hr1 , hr2 and so on.

If I write: \_root.line1.vv1.hr1.selected= true I get the result i am looking for.  
But I know want this to be contingent upon the value of a variable called temp:

var temp  
temp=1  
\_root.hr[temp].selected= true

…this does unfortunately not work.

Any suggestions ?

best regards
