Problem:

Net Express 4.0

Dialog System

Is there a way of making it obvious to a user that a tick box or radio button has the input focus? Most fields change in some way but these object types don't seem to.

Resolution:

This is a known issue on XP and 2000 operating systems. Pressing the 'Alt' button when the project is running turns on the highlighting. You can change this setting from 'Control Panel > Display > Appearance > Effects...'. By unchecking the last option 'Hide underlined letters for keyboard navigation until I press the Alt key', the highlighting of the controls becomes visible.

It is not likely that there will be an enhancement to Dialog System for this.
