I have a datagrid that's bound to an ADO.NET data table.

The table has two columns...a description and a boolean. The boolean column represents yes/no checkboxes. I also have an OK button on the form...when the user clicks OK, I scan through the datatable to see which rows the user 'checked'.

The problem is that the tri-state nature of the checkbox [checked on, checked off, and the one in between where it's grey] is confusing to users. Also...if someone clicks a checkbox and then clicks OK, the update isn't truly 'made' to the datatable [it seems the edit is still pending in the grid].

Has anyone else run into this? Any ideas to make this a little better?

Thanks,
Kevin
