ASP.net checkbox help

[Chris Kettenbach]

I want to bind a checkbox in a datagrid to a field in a database. Is this
possible? This is an Access database and the field is a true/false field.
I do not think there are any nulls in this field. I will also want the
checkbox to react to checking/unchecking. Thanks for any help/examples.

Regards,
Chris

The general way to do this is something like the following in the code behind:

myCheckBox.Checked = (bool) dataSet.Table[0]["MyBool"];

Hope that helps!

<asp:checkbox id="something" runat="server" checked='<%#
cbool(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "DaField")) %>' />
