title: Disable radio buttons by default
body: <p>I am trying to find a way to make radio buttons disabled by default. I have managed to disable them inside my event handler for <code>CheckedChanged</code> but that only works when action is taken by the user. How do I disable the control by default?</p>
  
  <pre><code>Private Sub rdoCustomer_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As Object, 
                                         ByVal e As EventArgs) _    
      Handles rdoCustomer.CheckChanged, rdoDepartment.CheckedChanged
  
      rdoCustomer.Enabled = False
      rdoCustomer.Checked = True
      rdoDepartment.Enabled = False
  End Sub
  </code></pre>
