I looked at the cellclick event, checkboxclick but it didn't work for me, when I select a row in the datagrid (not under the Column checkbox, the checkbox is automatically checked, how to avoid this?

I have found the answer here: https://www.syncfusion.com/kb/9775/how-to-set-checkbox-value-based-on-the-value-change-on-another-checkbox-column-in-winformsIt works when it's all gridcolumn, but if binding datatable and then adding column checkbox it doesn't work for me, may be need to convert datatable to gridcolumn?Temporarily I built gridcolumn from the beginning to avoid this problem.Edit: I didn't know it was possible to create checkboxes with datatable without gridcolumn. (it worked)

Hi GridLock, 

Thank you for using Syncfusion controls. 

We suspect that you are using GridCheckBoxSelectorColumn. Because , GridCheckBoxSelectorColumn is a unbound column which is used to select the rows by click the check box and vice versa the checkbox will be checked when you select the rows. If you want to restrict this behavior, please use the GridCheckBoxColumn instead of GridCheckBoxSelectorColumn.
