RadioButtons

Question

I want a pair of radio buttons that tell the datbase that it is a boy or girl and then set properties for both but all that happens when I try it with a message box the message pops up as soon as the form loads and says it is a boy before the radio has been clicked. What am i doing wrong all I can find in the docs is how to get buttons on to a form :-) oh yeah I'm using C# in visual Studio 2008

Answer 1

}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("You have not clicked a raioButton yet");
}

Answer 4

Hi,

You shouldn't use groupbox's Enter event. You should use radiobutton's checkedchanged event. Could you please try the code for two radiobuttons in a groupbox?

        private void radioButton2_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (radioButton2.Checked)
            {
                MessageBox.Show("boy");
            }
        }

        private void radioButton1_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (radioButton1.Checked)
            {
                MessageBox.Show("girl");
            }
        }

Answer 6

Hi SharpasDOH,

Thank you for your reply.

Some clarification with you:
What's the 6 errors when you debug your project?

With SYSTEM.IO's code, if we click RadioButton1, the messagebox for "Girl" will appear; if we click RadioButton2, the messagebox for "Boy" will appear.

For further troubleshooting, you can post your code of Form_Load event and Radio Button related code here. I'm willing to help you on that.

Hope this helps! If you have any concern, please feel free to let me know.

Best regards,
Yichun Chen
