:)Will,
I don;t know of a direct way with checkbox. However you could do it with images. When it's image how to use it (Dynamic* trick:) is detailed in FAQ section.
PS: A transparent backstyle sounds to be better in this case and less space for a smooth bitmap.

>>Michael,
>>As I get it you only want it for checkboxes not image displaying (if image displaying check FAQ section).
>>For checkbox :
>>-Add checkbox to grid.columnx
>>-Set checkbox.downpicture to 'ticker bitmap'
>>-Set checkbox.picture to 'crossed out bitmap'
>>-Set checkbox.caption to none
>>-Set checkbox.style to graphical
>>-Set column.dynamiccurrentcontrol property to checkbox (typically 'check1')
>>-Set column.sparse to .f.
>>Done:)
