[Help] Vb 2008 CheckBoxes

[HmanDude]

How do I make it that only one of it can be checked at a time? So if they check any others, it automatically unchecks the previous one that was checked.

Thanks.

The whole reason for checkbox's was so you can check multiple box's.

For one selection you should be using radio buttons.

Anyway, refer to here.

You should use RadioButtons to select one Checkboxes are for selecting many

Just use this :

---

Just use this (radiobuttons) :

Code:

If RadioButton1.Checked = True Then
            RadioButton2.Checked = False
            RadioButton3.Checked = False
        ElseIf RadioButton2.Checked = True Then
            RadioButton1.Checked = False
            RadioButton3.Checked = False
        ElseIf RadioButton3.Checked = True Then
            RadioButton1.Checked = False
            RadioButton2.Checked = False
        End If

            RadioButton2.Checked = False
        End If

yes this is the right answer but , you wanted it for checkbox so replace RadioButton1 with CheckBox1 and etc ..

radio buttons adn checkboxes are 2 different controls

[dunlop03]

That wont work , trust me you need to code the check boxes like this :

---

Code:

Private Sub CheckBox1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CheckBox1.Click
        If CheckBox1.Checked = True Then
            CheckBox2.Checked = False
            CheckBox3.Checked = False
     End If
    End Sub

    Private Sub CheckBox2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CheckBox2.Click
        If CheckBox2.Checked = True Then
            CheckBox1.Checked = False
            CheckBox3.Checked = False
        End If
    End Sub

    Private Sub CheckBox3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CheckBox3.Click

        If CheckBox3.Checked = True Then
            CheckBox1.Checked = False
            CheckBox2.Checked = False
        End If
    End Sub

Thanks guys. dunlop03 your code works for me atm.

Also using RadioButtons on another project im working on so thanks

[dunlop03]

I'm not sure that code is neccasery

Code:

If RadioButton1.Checked = True Then
            RadioButton2.Checked = False
            RadioButton3.Checked = False
        ElseIf RadioButton2.Checked = True Then
            RadioButton1.Checked = False
            RadioButton3.Checked = False
        ElseIf RadioButton3.Checked = True Then
            RadioButton1.Checked = False
            RadioButton2.Checked = False
        End If

When i use radio buttons and for example i use radiobutton 1, than i change to radiobutton 2, number 1 disappear.

Sorry for bad explanation, and sorry if I am wrong.
