Checkboxes in Edittables (OpenInsight Specific)

assuming that it is a windows message that

I'm going to have to send, but I don't

know what the message should look like.

Can anyone help? 

Thanks in advance.

Duane,

The checkboxes in listboxes you refer to are nothing more than bitmaps, so this is a bit of a cheat as they are not 'true' controls.

AFAIK there is no way currently to draw bitmaps in an edit table cell so you can't use the same trick.

In later versions of the edit table control I've seen checkbox controls embedded in the cells (along with combo boxes etc), but I don't think this is possible in the version supplied with OI, and there's certainly no interface for doing so.
