Re: Checkbox data binding on Checked property

Thank you Phillip and Steven for your replies. It's comforting to know that
there is a reason why I couldn't get the Bind to work.

Take care.

Thanks for Phillip's input.

Hi Eric,

I think you need to use the "Eval" expression instead of the "Bind" since
"Bind" is used for two-way databinding and has limited functionalty. For
your scenario, you just need to use "Eval" to extract the column value and
compare it to convert it to boolean value. e.g;

<%# Eval("CategoryName").ToString() == "TestName"? true: false %>

Also, we can also define a helper function in page's code behind and call
the helperfunction in databinding expression to do th work. e.g;

<%# GetBool(Eval("CategoryName")) %><br />

========in code behind============
protected bool GetBool(object obj)
{
return obj.ToString() == "TestName" ? true : false;
}


Hope this helps.
