Enable Checkboxes in PDF?

I am using Acrobat Pro 8. I have a PDF file/form that can only read now. I want to enable ppl to type the answers in this form (but I do not need these answers in some database). I went to Tools/Form/Text Field Tool. And this seems to work for me. But one of items on this  form has checkboxes that should only allow for one of them to checked off. How do I do this?

In Acrobat 8, select Tools>Forms>Heck Box tool to create checkboxes.
That of course should have been ">Check Box Tool"

Yes, I don't see how this prevents one from choosing more than one box, I would like to keep the box selection to only ONE box of the set.
