You are using the wrong control then. Use a RadioButton instead.

Or something like this could work... (depending on your form design...)

    Protected Sub CheckBoxHandler(ByVal Sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) _
    Handles CheckBox1.Checked, Checkbox2.Checked, CheckBox3.Checked, CheckBox4.Checked, CheckBox5.Checked
 
        Dim ThisCheckBox As CheckBox = DirectCast(Sender, CheckBox)
        ThisCheckBox.Checked = Not ThisCheckBox.Checked
 
        For Each CrntControl As Control In Me.Controls
            If TypeOf CrntControl Is CheckBox And Not CrntControl Is ThisCheckBox Then
                If ThisCheckBox.Checked Then
                    DirectCast(CrntControl, CheckBox).Checked = Not ThisCheckBox.Checked
                End If
            End If
        Next
 
    End Sub

Why do you have to use checkbox? Is it homework?
