Are there any examples available of using checkboxes within the SL 2011 UI DataGrid? I saw this post, but I don't think it's for this particular grid: http://www.componentart.com/kb/article.aspx?id=10128

When I click on the "See Checkbox Columns in ComponentArt Grid" link, it just directs me off to the main documentation page. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hello,

Thank you for submitting your query with ComponentArt forum.

For this, you can use a templated column. The template can contain a CheckBox whose checked setting you can bind to the underlying Boolean value with the usual "Binding" syntax.

Below is a sample code to implement checkbox column in SilveLight datagrid. In the below code boolean field called IsMember is coming from data source, and it's bound to the column containing a checkbox like this:

 <cart:DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Is Member?" Width="100" Binding="{Binding IsMember}">
                    <cart:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>

                        <DataTemplate>

                           <CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding}"></CheckBox>

                        </DataTemplate>

                    </cart:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>

                </cart:DataGridTemplateColumn>

You can also refer the following online help article for the same:

http://docs.componentart.com/default.aspx?content=ComponentArt.Web.UI.Silverlight.server/ComponentArt.Silverlight.UI.Data~ComponentArt.Silverlight.UI.Data.DataGridCheckBoxColumn.html#UIFramework/2011/ComponentArt.Web.UI.Silverlight.server/ComponentArt.Silverlight.UI.Data~ComponentArt.Silverlight.UI.Data.DataGridCheckBoxColumn.html

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
