I have a .docx file which includes a questionnaire. The answers are chosen via radio buttons (see image below), but I can't get Trados to extract the text for these options. It's quite a long questionnaire and most of the answers are in my TM, so I would like t be able to process in Trados rather than manually in Word (itself a lengthy and fiddly process).

I've tried selecting as many things as I can under 'embedded content' when preparing the files, as well as every reasonable and unreasonable option under 'common', but it doesn't want to extract this text. In Word itself, to edit I have to use the Developer tab, click Design Mode, then right click on each answer, go to object, then 'Edit', so not sure if this process is what's blocking Studio from extracting?

This is the properties info for one of the buttons:
