First I tried to do it in the Refresh method of the check box but it never fires (probably because the checkbox is in the container). Then I tried to put an IIF() expression in the Caption field but all it does, is showing the expression.

You'll have to use one of the "Dynamic" properties of the grid column calling a method on the container that will refresh its contents. Works perfectly for me.
