hey all, i am using VB 6.0 on a Windows XP machine. I am using a datagrid control bound to a ado data control (through which it is accessing an Access 2003 table). My first column is connected to a boolean field in the Access table. I want to display a checkbox IN that column (would prefer not to rig an outside checkbox to display over the grid). I go to the format tab on the datagrid property page and select checkbox for the first column. However, when i run the program, the first column just displays 0 or 1, not a checkbox. Any ideas? One thing I heard, may be just a rumor, is that VB 6.0 doesn't read the Access datafield formatted as Yes/No as a boolean field. Not sure if this is true, but if it is...could that be one reason why a checkbox isn't displayed? Any ideas at all will help me. thank you in advance
