Hi Rex,

You need to cycle through each record and set the Selected property.

cbList.DataTextField="ProductName";
cbList.DataValueField="Discontinued"; // boolean database column
cbList.DataBind();
foreach (ListItem li in cbList.Items) {
   li.Selected = bool.Parse(li.Value); // will check/uncheck, depending on "Discontinued" value
}
