Hi,

Can anyone can help me to solve this problem.

Your English is not good, but I think you mean that when you press [SHIFT]+TAB is doe not do what you want: I.e. go to the previous input field on your form.

If so, then you need to set the Tab Order.
In the design window, select "View" from the menu, then "Tab order" (There is also a button on the "Dialog Design" toolstrip)

The current tab order will be shown. Click on the controls in the order you want them to be processed by TAB / [SHITF]+TAB. Then use "View...Tab Order" again when you have finished.

Remember to include labels: these should have a tab order one less that the input control they refer to, so that any '&' characters in the label get translated to a [ALT]+Key combination.

That's how I read it, as a TAB ORDER problem.

It's still a tab order problem. You need to enable TabStop on the Radio Buttons and set them in the order. The fact that they are in a GroupBox is not relevant.
