You could also use the focus in code and something like
txtName.focus in the load form event and also use the radButton1.Enabled = True for the radio button

where do I need to put this in the code? I need it initially selected when application executes. I tried putting it after

InitializeComponent()

but didn't go through.

The code needs to be in the FormLoad Event and you can choose any textbox or control to give focus to.

This does not put the cursor in a text box, it only controls tabbing. I'd still like to know how to put the cursor in a text box

Me.Textbox1.select()

Put above code in the formload event and cursor will be set to Textbox1.
