C#

internal System.Windows.Forms.GroupBox GroupBox1;
internal System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton RadioButton1;
internal System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton RadioButton2;
internal System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton RadioButton3;

private void InitializeRadioButtonsAndGroupBox()
{

    // Construct the GroupBox object.
    this.GroupBox1 = new GroupBox();

    // Construct the radio buttons.
    this.RadioButton1 = new System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton();
    this.RadioButton2 = new System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton();
    this.RadioButton3 = new System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton();

    // Set the location, tab and text for each radio button
    // to a cursor from the Cursors enumeration.
    this.RadioButton1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(24, 24);
    this.RadioButton1.TabIndex = 0;
    this.RadioButton1.Text = "Help";
    this.RadioButton1.Tag = Cursors.Help;
    this.RadioButton1.TextAlign = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;

    this.RadioButton2.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(24, 56);
    this.RadioButton2.TabIndex = 1;
    this.RadioButton2.Text = "Up Arrow";
    this.RadioButton2.Tag = Cursors.UpArrow;
    this.RadioButton2.TextAlign = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;

    this.RadioButton3.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(24, 80);
    this.RadioButton3.TabIndex = 3;
    this.RadioButton3.Text = "Cross";
    this.RadioButton3.Tag = Cursors.Cross;
    this.RadioButton3.TextAlign = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;

    // Add the radio buttons to the GroupBox.  
    this.GroupBox1.Controls.Add(this.RadioButton1);
    this.GroupBox1.Controls.Add(this.RadioButton2);
    this.GroupBox1.Controls.Add(this.RadioButton3);

    // Set the location of the GroupBox. 
    this.GroupBox1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(56, 64);
    this.GroupBox1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(200, 150);

    // Set the text that will appear on the GroupBox.
    this.GroupBox1.Text = "Choose a Cursor Style";
    //
    // Add the GroupBox to the form.
    this.Controls.Add(this.GroupBox1);
    //
