Hi,
I'm trying to create a row edit template in combination with a template field. So I create two columns of which the first is a template column containing a checkbox, binded to a bool in the datasource. This is working perfectly. But when I add a RowEditTemplate, thing go wrong. First of all the template column isn't being created in the default row edit template, so I have to add it manually (as a checkbox) which isn't very difficult. At runtime however the template column is rendered incorrectly *after* the row edit template has been shown. The checkbox contains the correct value, but when I hit the "Ok" button, the value in the template column is replaced by the string "true" or "false" instead of the checkbox.
Is this a bug or I'm doing something wrong?
Are checkboxes now supported in 2009.1?
Nope, still on the list. Please contact the product manager to bump it up:

The check box columns are at the top of our priority list for the next version.
Are they available in 2009.2?
If still not can you provide a sample how to do it using a template?
Sorry no. You can find a sample for using checkboxes in templates here:

Also you can use DataBinder.Eval to bind its selected property.
