Asp.net Datagrid with checkbox

[newbie14]

Dear All,

I have query here simple one with name and status field. So what I need is a datagridview which must have a column for checkbox. The problem here is that based on each row of my data I will check for my status field it is "y" then I want to check the box else box is empty. This process should happen when I am binding the data to my datagrid. I was trying something like in windows application menuAuthorisation.Rows.Add but is not recognise in asp.net. Can any one help me on this please? Thanks.

I normally do this with a template field, and evaluate the relevant boolean expression from my datasource:

                    <asp:TemplateField>
                        <ItemTemplate><asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBox1" runat="server" Checked='<%# Eval("status")=="y" %>' Enabled="false" /></ItemTemplate>
                    </asp:TemplateField>
