The error message is probably because you used inconsistent quotes in this line:

this.getField('Group 1”).display = display.hidden;

I would recommend sticking with one type of quotes, either double or single, but they must always be straight. No "curly" quotes allowed!

Also, there's an error already in line 1. That's not how you access the value of a field.

It needs to be:

if (this.getField("Boiling Water Canner").valueAsString=="Yes") {

Same goes for all other instances where you tried to do it.

Great -- I have updated to the following:

if(this.getField("Boiling Water Canner").valueAsString=="Yes") {

// selected - show radio buttons

this.getField('Boiling Water Pack').display = display.visible; // show radio button

} else

// deselected show hide the radio buttons and reset the field

this.getField('Group 1').display = display.hidden; // hide radio button}

if(this.getField("Pressure Canner").valueAsString=="Yes"){

// selected - show radio buttons

this.getField('Pressure Canner Gauge').display = display.visible; // show radio button

} else

// deselected show hide the radio buttons and reset the field

this.getField('Group 1').display = display.hidden; // hide radio button}

} else

// deselected show hide the radio buttons and reset the field

this.getField('Group 1').display = display.hidden; // hide radio button}

if(this.getField("Dehydration").valueAsString=="Yes") {

// selected - show radio buttons

Now an error on line 14 ?

What is the exact text of the error message? It usually provides a pretty good idea of what the problem is.
