X-ray bright points (XBP's) are known to show variability on a number of timescales, including impulsive X-ray brightenings. The relationship between these XBP ``flares'' and normal solar flares is poorly known. A fundamental question is whether nonthermal acceleration of particles takes place in XBP flares. We address this issue by searching for nonthermal radio emission at metric wavelengths from flaring XBPs identified in Yohkoh/SXT data. Unequivocal evidence for type-III-like radio bursts, usually attributed to beams of nonthermal electrons on open field lines, is found. This suggests that XBP flares are similar to normal flares and can indeed accelerate nonthermal populations of energetic particles.
