(1) add a field (logical) to the rowsource of the grid

(2) the field contains whether the checkbox should be readonly or not

(3) you'll need two checkboxes, one readonly the other not

(4) in the combobox.valid update the field of (1)

(5) the checkbox column should have a DynamicCurrentControl based on the value of the field in (1)
You better add a DynamicBackColor showing whether the checkbox is enabled
