Show CheckBox instead of dropdown

[Chinedu]

How do I make a column show checkboxes instead of true/false dropdown for boolean columns

Hi Nedu,

You can do this by changing the Celltype of the checkbox column to combox and also you need to set the choicelist of that column. Here is a code snippet that show this.

this.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.Columns["BooleanColumnName"].Appearance.AnyRecordFieldCell.CellType = "ComboBox";

System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection sc = new System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection();
sc.Add(true.ToString() );
sc.Add(false.ToString() );
this.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.Columns["BooleanColumnName"].Appearance.AnyRecordFieldCell.ChoiceList = sc;

Best regards,
