Ring finger trouble...

Hello Mr. Robertson.
I'm a beginning piper and a long time guitar player. One thing I've always had trouble with (especially now on the practice chanter with certain movements) is independant control of my ring finger. I know for certain things it is imperative that you be able to move the ring and little fingers at the same time (like on the grip to B) or by itslef (the grip from D). Is there any advice you can offer on how to build this ability?
