Hi,

Change the database column from tinyint to bit and send the boolean value

Quote:
1) true: if checkbox is checked
2) flase:if checkbox is not checked

from front-end. Your problem will be solved.

Solution 2

String chk1 = ((System.Web.UI.WebControls.CheckBox)(row.Cells[4].Controls[1])).Checked ? "1" : "0";

this will return 1 if checked and 0 if it wasnt checked
