Original Data Not Carried over After Switching a Drop Down to Radio Buttons

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 377
I have migrated a list from an old SharePoint site (on-prim) to SharePoint On-Line. I switch a dropdown control to a radio button. I have been able to transfer over the original selection items in the dropdown. But the radio button is not showing the previous Selection. 
 
Here are the steps I took:
1) add radio buttons to data card
2) copied dropdown Item value to the radio Button Item Value
3) Deleted the Dropdown
4)Fixed all errors that popped up. 
 
What steps am I missing.

    You might have missed to set the Default property of the Radio control to: ThisItem.YourColumn.Value

    try to change a few properties :

    Set the Items property of the Radio control to: Choices(YourList.YourChoiceColumn)
    Set the Default property of the Radio control to: ThisItem.YourChoiceColumn.Value
    Make sure the Update property of the parent DataCard is: RadioButton.Selected

    if You do not done this already
