How do I use Select Case on checkboxes in a Groupbox control?

[Rashar]

In Vb, I would have an option or groupbox, with checkbox controls on it. I could set a value for each checkbox and then write the following code... Select Case optGroupbox1 Case 1: 'checkbox 1 'statements Case 2: 'checkbox 2 'statements End Select How would I implement the above code in vb.net? I've tried the following but vb.net does not like Case chkbox1.CheckState = CheckState.Checked call... Select Case GroupBox1.Controls Case chkbox1.CheckState = CheckState.Checked 'statements End Select Thanks in advance.

VB.NET won't work like that. Since you've specified GroupBox1.Controls in the Select statement, you can only specify properties of the Controls collection, not it's contents. You'll have to enumerate the controls collection to get this to work:

For Each gbc As Control in GroupBox1.Controls
Select Case gbc.Name
Case "chkbox1":
If gbc.CheckState = CheckState.Checked Then
...
End If
End Select
Next
