Urgent - Visual Studio Express 2010 and Radio Buttons

Hi folks. I am using ms Visual Studio 2010 Express and have created a a page, test.aspx, that needs to have several radio button. Below is a snippet of one group:
<tr>
<td align="right">
<asp:Label ID="lblHome" runat="server" Text="Do you own your home?"></asp:Label>
</td>
<td >
<asp:RadioButton ID="RadHomeYes" runat="server" GroupName="RadHome" Text="Yes" />

<asp:RadioButton ID="RadHomeNo" runat="server" GroupName="RadHome" Text="No" />
</td>
</tr>

I have a button on the page that executes coding in the test.aspx.vb page that retreives the values of the labels and textboxes. That codign works well.
The PROBLEM is that I can not seem to get the value of the radio button - they aren't required to click on it but I need to know if they did and WHICH one!
Please help as this is urgent.....

Hello,

I copied and pasted your code directly into VS 2010, and all worked fine for me in IE, FireFox, and Chrome. The only thing I can think of trying is try:

If RadHomeYes.Checked = True Then

Probably wont make a difference, but worth a try.

Umm... paulpp, did you even look at my comment? I believe that is exactly what I suggested.

Thanks! I also tried using the "radiolist" and that worked well too. More questions coming! So stay tuned!

Personally, I don't like to use "radiolist" when there are less than three buttons. But glad to hear it's working.

Sorry mgfranz, when I opened the window the comment wasn't there, and I had the window open for a while until I answered. No harm meant.
