Here I will show you how to create Toggle Buttons in VB.NET, Lets take a look:

Imports System.Drawing
Imports System.Drawing.Drawing2D
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Public Class Form1 
    Public Class RadioButtonToggleButton
        Public Shared Sub Main()
            Application.Run(New Form1)
        End Sub
    End Class 
    Public Class Form1
        Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form 
#Region " Windows Form Designer generated code " 
        Public Sub New()
            MyBase.New() 
            'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
            InitializeComponent() 
            'Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call 
        End Sub 
        'Form overrides dispose to clean up the component list.
        Protected Overloads Overrides Sub Dispose(ByVal disposing As Boolean)
            If disposing Then
                If Not (components Is Nothing) Then
                    components.Dispose()
                End If
            End If
            MyBase.Dispose(disposing)
        End Sub 
        'Required by the Windows Form Designer
        Private components As System.ComponentModel.IContainer 
        'NOTE: The following procedure is required by the Windows Form Designer
        'It can be modified using the Windows Form Designer.  
        'Do not modify it using the code editor.
        Friend WithEvents RadioButton1 As System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton
        Friend WithEvents RadioButton2 As System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton
        Friend WithEvents RadioButton3 As System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton
        Friend WithEvents TextBox1 As System.Windows.Forms.TextBox
        Friend WithEvents Label1 As System.Windows.Forms.Label
        <System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough()> Private Sub InitializeComponent()          Me.RadioButton1 = New System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton
            Me.RadioButton2 = New System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton
            Me.RadioButton3 = New System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton
            Me.TextBox1 = New System.Windows.Forms.TextBox
            Me.Label1 = New System.Windows.Forms.Label
            Me.SuspendLayout()
            '
            'RadioButton1
            '
            Me.RadioButton1.Appearance = System.Windows.Forms.Appearance.Button
            Me.RadioButton1.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(96, 64)
            Me.RadioButton1.Name = "RadioButton1"
            Me.RadioButton1.TabIndex = 0
            Me.RadioButton1.Text = "Radio Button 1"
            '    
            'RadioButton2
            Me.RadioButton2.Appearance = System.Windows.Forms.Appearance.Button
            Me.RadioButton2.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(96, 112)
            Me.RadioButton2.Name = "RadioButton2"
            Me.RadioButton2.TabIndex = 1
            Me.RadioButton2.Text = "Radio Button 2"
            '
            'RadioButton3
            '
            Me.RadioButton3.Appearance = System.Windows.Forms.Appearance.Button
            Me.RadioButton3.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(96, 160)
            Me.RadioButton3.Name = "RadioButton3"
            Me.RadioButton3.TabIndex = 2
            Me.RadioButton3.Text = "Radio Button 3"
            '
            'TextBox1
            '
            Me.TextBox1.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(40, 216)
            Me.TextBox1.Name = "TextBox1"
            Me.TextBox1.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(200, 20)
            Me.TextBox1.TabIndex = 3
            Me.TextBox1.Text = ""
            '
            'Form1
            '
            Me.AutoScaleBaseSize = New System.Drawing.Size(5, 13)
            Me.ClientSize = New System.Drawing.Size(292, 273)
            Me.Controls.Add(Me.Label1)
            Me.Controls.Add(Me.TextBox1)
            Me.Controls.Add(Me.RadioButton3)
            Me.Controls.Add(Me.RadioButton2)
            Me.Controls.Add(Me.RadioButton1)
            Me.ResumeLayout(False
        End Sub 
#End Region
    End Class
    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)Handles MyBase.Load 
    End Sub
    Private Sub RadioButton1_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadioButton1.CheckedChanged
        TextBox1.Text = "You clicked button 1."
    End Sub 
    Private Sub RadioButton2_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadioButton2.CheckedChanged
        TextBox1.Text = "You clicked button 2."
    End Sub 
    Private Sub RadioButton3_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadioButton3.CheckedChanged
       TextBox1.Text = "You clicked button 3."
    End Sub
End Class 

Now if you click any button the corresponding result will appear in the textbox, suppose we click on button 2 then the output is like this:

togglebutton.gif

Just like above if you click on button 1 then textbox displays "you clicked button 1" and so on.
