You need to understand exactly what happens when you use a "Reset Form" action. It simply sets the values of the specified fields equal to their default value, nothing else. It seems as though you're expecting it to also execute the code that you've placed in the radio button's Mouse Up event, but that's not what happens. You might want to add a JavaScript action to your Clear button to set up the combo boxes correctly. Another approach might be to get rid of the Reset Form action in the Mouse Up event of the button and do the resetting and setting up of the combo boxes entirely with JavaScript. Note that for other types of fields, such as text fields and combo boxes, when the field value changes as the result of a Reset Form action occuring, their Validate and Format events will get triggered.
