The event useful for this control are -
|

The CheckBox controls are usually placed inside another control - the GroupBox control. This control logically groups related controls like the CheckBox and RadioButton controls. We need to drag the GroupBox control from the `Containers' section of the Toolbox and drop it on the form. Then we can drag and drop the CheckBox and RadioButton controls inside the GroupBox control.
