Bound checkbox question

I have multiple checkbox's on a form that are bound to a data source.
they are all working properly and my updates are working fine.
I added a check / uncheck all button and it looks like it is
working (shows the checkbox's checked or unchecked) but is not
changing the underlying data source. I am changing them using
Checkbox1.CheckState = CheckState.Checked etc.....

when I look at the data source when saving it always shows the
value the form was loaded with. If I change a textbox or other bound
control on the form it seems to reflect the changes in the data source......

Any ideas on what I am missing ?

Thanks in advance.
 

Try using the checkbox's Checked property instead of the CheckedState property:

Checkbox1.Checked = True

or

Checkbox1.Checked = False

tried both.............


it works as expected when I manually click the checkbox's
but if I change them from code it is like they were not changed.
