Additional column with checkboxes in DBGrid (again)
lazarus / 16-Databases

I've added an additional column containing checkboxes to DBGrid.
Checkboxes are indicating which records should be exported. Now I need
to:
- programmatically check/uncheck any checkbox basing on its record
number in the grid;
- read a state of any checkbox.
How can I do this?

Thanks,
Michael.

you seem a bit confused, so let me say this, if you think in terms of
subject - view then a dataset is the subject aka the object with the
data and a dbgrid is the view aka a graphical representation of the
data in the dataset. You do not ask the dbgrid for the values you go
directly to the dataset and retrieve the data.
