Buttons, checkboxes and radiobuttons are useful commands to retrieve user selections. In general, when options can be any number of many, checkboxes would be more appropriate. When two or more options are available, but only one can be selected at any one time, radiobuttons would be the better choice. Use a groupbox to identify and separate groups of radiobuttons.
