In the code below I'm setting the Checked property <asp:CheckBox checked=> instead of Text Property(as in the example above. The code is compiled corretyly. But at run time it gives the Invalid cast exception. My strRedFlag field will return string '0' or '1' In database I have converted that to boolean but it gives the same error. on the form I want to convert it to boolean value. Can any one help me.
<asp:TemplateCo lumn HeaderText="Red Flag"><ItemTemp late><asp:Check Box checked= '<%# DataBinder.Eval (Container.Data Item, "strRedFlag ") %>' runat="server"/></ItemTemplate></asp:TemplateCol umn
