Salute..
I have VB.NET..SQL Server 7.0 SP3
I have a column in my table that will contain either 1 or zero. I want to view that column in a datagrid bool column and make that column editable by making its column style Read Only property = false. .Ofcourse I changed the False Value and True Values of the column style to 0 and 1,respectively.
When I make the data type of that column in the DB char(1) everything works fine. The zero value is a blank check box and the one is a checked box.
BUT...
when I make the data type of the column in the DB either INT or BIT the check box gets dimmed and it does not accept editing( that is if i try to uncheck a box it retains its value when i leave to another row)....in addition to that i had REALLLY WEIRD exceptions !!!..
what is the story of that DataGridBoolColumn???..How should I deal with it??..
p.s. Please dont tell me go to MSDN..it has nothing!!..
Thanks In Advance

4Guys has an extensive examination of the DataGrid (10 articles so far!), I'm sure at least one of them will have something on it.
