I have an asp webpage that allows a user to view and update student demographic information that resides in an Access database. I have recently added a yes/no field (checkbox) in the demographics table and modified the webpage to reflect the change/new field.

I can make updates to the table via the webpage, however, when I leave the page then return back to it, the checkbox field is not checked and appears to be set to “no”. When I look at this field in the database, the value is set to “yes”. Anyone have any ideas as to why the field doesn’t display correctly on the webpage?
 
This sounds like an ASP question and could probably be better answered here: forum333.

That being said, it sounds like you are simply not referencing the field correctly in your asp code.

default value need to = record set field.
also, consider 1/0 vs. yes/no if you are going to use this field in search.
