How do I add radio menu items?

TheMSsForum.com: The Microsoft Software Forum

How does one add groups of menu items which can be
treated like radio buttons? I've seen many programs like
this, which have menu items with a dot next to the
selected item in a list. .NET seems to only support the
checked property.

All the radio buttons on a control act as one "group", meaning that only one
of them can have their Checked property set to true. Think this is what you
mean. :) If you need more than one "group" of radio buttons, probably
easiest to slap down transparent panels and plunk your radio buttons into
each of those panels as appropriate using the panels as a "group".

Sorry I wasn't more specific. I am not asking about the
normal Radio button control. I am seeking information on
how to add 'radio-type' menu items to a MainMenu
control. I've seen menu items that have check marks next
to them, but I've also seen menu items with dots next to
them. The ones with dots typically are groups of
mutually exclusive options. Is there a way to add these
to a .NET menu?

Thanks,
Chad

Ah! Got it. I have no idea how to do that in CF.
