Since CheckBoxList and RadioButtonList are group controls, you can only set an AccessKey for the group as far as I'm aware. In other words, you can set it for the list, but not for items within the list. Hope this helps explain.

Detect the window.keycode event in javascript. If they hit the combination you wish, use javascript to "check" the box or radio button.

Here's a simple link for you. Detect the key codes pressed. If they hit alt and R, then check the correct box:

if (document.getElementById("radiobtnID")) document.getElementById("radiobtnID").checked = true;

Here's the link:
