Subject: Re: RadioButtons
Well, the thing is I want to be able to create a single Visually
inherited radio button that does this on its own. So, I can place any
number of them in a group box and it will work. It seems to me that
the group box must notify the radio buttons of their state change and
I should be able to tap into that event to make my color changes work
without keeping track of each individual button and iterating through
a collection.

Lee,
I was a little quick with the send button. Right idea but carried too far=
Try this:
Private Sub rbToggle1_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As , ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles rbToggle1.CheckedChanged
If rbToggle1.Checked =3D True Then
rbToggle1.BackColor =3D ColorDown
rbToggle2.BackColor =3D ColorUp
End If
End Sub
Private Sub rbToggle2_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As , ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles rbToggle2.CheckedChanged
If rbToggle2.Checked =3D True Then
rbToggle2.BackColor =3D ColorDown
rbToggle1.BackColor =3D ColorUp
End If
End Sub

Subject: Re: RadioButtons
I've I understood you correctly you are trying to create a RadioButton
with extra functionality. If this is the case then you should inherit from
RadioButton class
Inherits
And then
Private Sub UserControl1_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As , ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.CheckedChanged
If Me.Checked Then
Me.BackColor = ColorDown
Else
Me.BackColor = ColorUp
End If
End Sub
In this case all works fine. Thought I tested it on VB.NET 2002 but on
VB.NET 2003 things should be the same

Subject: Message icons in forms
Hi all,
I want simulate one message box with one form,
how can i load one picture to form with system
'critical message icon' ?
I do not mean icon file external load because the
aspect of system icon changes with system used.
Thanks
Fernando

Subject: Re: RadioButtons
Thank you very much. That worked. I'm not sure I understand why this
worked, but when I inherited from UserControl and tried to modify the
behavior of a radio button that I added to my UserControl, it would
not work.
I guess you only want to use UserControl for creating complex user
controls from the base controls and inherit from the specific control
if you want to modify the behavior of a base control.
Any additional insight on why I could not get it to work using
UserControl would be helpful.
Thanks,
Lee
