I have a vb.net 1.1 winforms app and have several radio buttons in a panel
control. I want to be able to check several of the buttons at the same
time, but their behavior is that when I check one the other button becomes
unchecked so its not possible to have 2 checked at the same time. Is there
a way to work around this?

Thanks.

I would suggest one of two things:
(1) If the user is to be able to check multiple RadioButtons then use
CheckBoxes instead as the user might be confused since this goes against the
"normal" usage of this control.
(2) If you really must do this, place any RadioButtons that can be checked
at the same time in different Panels.
