Scott here,
My Edit/Add pages show checkboxes on my web pages, but my List pages show the words "True" and "False".
Is there a way to display checkboxes on the List page?

Scott,
here is what I think: list page is readonly and checkboxes may confuse users. However you can make it readonly.
Anyway you can easily change this in the code. Just find a place in ..._list.asp page where this field being displayed and change it to display combobox.

Hi Sergey,
The code in list.asp that contains the place where I want to put my checkbox looks like.
Response.Write GetData(rsData.Fields("Stress"), "")
I looked up the GetData function in aspvariables.asp and I can't figure out how to display the checkbox on my list page.
I also noticed that when I edit a record with a checkbox that it doesn't display the status of the existing checkboxes. They are always unchecked by default.
Is there a way to have both the list and edit pages show the status of a yes/no (i.e. checkbox) field?
I'm not concerned with the users getting confused with checkboxes on the list page.
Thanks in advance,
Scott
