Displays a list of items that a user can choose from. Embeds data into a Visual Basic application. The Option Button control, as part of an option group with other option buttons, displays multiple choices, from which a user can choose only one. Displays bitmaps, icons, or Windows metafiles, JPEG, or GIF files. It also displays text or acts as a visual container for other controls. Adds a rectangle, square, ellipse, or circle to a form, frame, or picture box. Provides an area to enter or display text. Executes timer events at specified time intervals.

Note The pointer tool (the first tool in the toolbox) provides a way to move and resize forms and controls. It is not a control.
