Saving default values of checkboxes

[Ries]

Can someone help me out.

I want to use default values for some checkboxes. Is use the following example in order to accomplish this:
Me.CheckBox20.Checked = True

Though the form has a databinding with an Access database and when I use Updatedataset, the checked values of the textboxes aren't stored within the database.

How can resolve this problem?

if I understand your question, all you have to do is set the property in the control's property page to checked = true at design time.

I have never used databinding. I used Access, but practically I did everything with VBA. Actually I do something like you need, but, always, using code. In my table I added some boolean fields, that are updated by my application code.It seems strange that binding were not possible on boolean fields, anyway you can always use a separate updating by code in an event routine. I think, anyway, the better choice is to wrap your application to DB only by code! Good job!

Andy,

I've tried both methods. I've tried to do it with the property page and I tried it with me.checkbox.checked = true in code.

I think though the problem isn't the checking. It's the saving....
Cause I can see my form actually use the default values of the checkboxes.....

Here's my entire code routine for adding a database entry within access where I try to add the default value for the checkboxes.

Private Sub MenuItem4_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MenuItem4.Click
Dim i, projectnumber As Integer
Dim rw As DataRow
rw = objpodataset.Tables(0).NewRow
projectnumber = InputBox("projectnumber:")
rw.Item("Projectnumber") = projectnumber
Try
Me.BindingContext(objpodataset, "PO Base").EndCurrentEdit()
objpodataset.Tables(0).Rows.Add(rw)
i = OleDbDataAdapter1.Update(objpodataset)
Catch eEndEdit As System.Exception
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(eEndEdit.Message)
End Try
Me.objpodataset_PositionChanged()
Me.LoadDataSet()
Me.BindingContext(objpodataset, "PO Base").Position = (Me.objpodataset.Tables("PO Base").Rows.Count - 1)
Me.objpodataset_PositionChanged()
Me.CheckBox5.Checked = True
Me.CheckBox7.Checked = True
Me.CheckBox11.Checked = True
End Sub

I even tried to add Me.UpdateDataset() at the end of the routine, though this didn't had any effect.

Hoping someone can help me out here....
