OK, here is what I have:

Dim radio As New RadioButton

        With radio
            .Location.X.Equals(100)
            .Location.Y.Equals(100)
            .Text = ""
        End With

I want a text-less radio button at 100,100 what did I do wrong? Thanks.

You are not setting the x and y coordinates you are asking to evaluate if they equal those numbers.

Also where are you adding the radiobutton to the my.controls?

I had a feeling it was just checking the X and Y not setting them...How do I fix it?

Nowhere?

use the = operator. The location points call for a integer value so set x = 100 and y = 100

Don't forget to add the control to the forms controls collection as modi123_1 hinted.

Your on the right track, but you need to specifiy a 'New' location for the button by using '.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(100, 100)' and then telling the form to draw it on the screen using 'Me.Controls.Add(radButton)'

Dim radButton As New RadioButton

        With radButton
            .Checked = False
            .Text = "Radio Button"
            .Location = New System.Drawing.Point(100, 100)
            Me.Controls.Add(radButton)
        End With

        Dim radButton2 As New RadioButton

        With radButton2
            .Checked = True
            .Text = "Radio Button 2"
            .Location = New System.Drawing.Point(210, 100)
            Me.Controls.Add(radButton2)
        End With

Here is a screenshot for what the error shows, if you are using visual studio, placing your mouse over the squiggly blue line will give you your answer:

or the error below will tell you: Error 1 Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to 'System.Drawing.Point'. Thus meaning you must create a 'New' point using 'New System.Drawing.Point(#,#)' Your compiler will give you an error but the error usually implies its the answer as well.
