How do I get radio buttons in Visual Studio 2008 to have only one selection at a time?

Question

This is for a project. I am having difficulty trying to get two radio buttons (Example: Choosing Male or Female for Gender in a form) to work properly where if you click on one button, the other was is no longer checked. The buttons are displayed horizontally in the form and they are radio buttons, not radio button lists. This is all in Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 using ASP.NET (.aspx format) for the web pages with Visual Basic (NOT VBScript) as the background code. Is there any way the radio buttons to work properly?

Answer 1

Set the GroupName property for each radio button to have the same name.

Doesn't matter what the name is, as long as it is unique for each group. Gender would be a reasonable choice.

You'll find GroupName in the properties for the radio buttons.

There is a practical way for that. In the toolbox find "groupbox" control and drag it to your form. Adjust it however you like. And then place the radiobuttons inside that groupbox. That's all. When one of these radiobuttons is checked, others will be unchecked.



Happy programming!
